Paiste drums: Born in 1998 from an idea shared between Jeff Ocheltree and Erik Paiste.
Spirit of 2002
These snares were featured at the winter NAMM '98 event.* The concept of this series was to recycle cracked and in other ways broken 2002 cymbals (Bronze B8 alloy) to make snare drums, timbales and drum sets.
The drums were cast at Duluth Brass Manufacturing in Duluth, Minnesota. The cracked 2002 cymbals used in the test shells created problems in the casting process, with about a 75% failure rate. To fix this problem, CA 907 (90% copper / 10% tin) ingots were used for the shells, with a small amount of 2002 cymbals added into the formula.
The primary user of this series of drums was Carl Palmer.
Each Spririt of 2002 drum included a certificate signed by Erik Paiste and Jeff Ocheltree. The interior of each drum was signed by Ocheltree, with a date showing when it was completed.
S-Bronze
In addition, with the Initiative of Ed Clift and Danny Carey, Paiste created more snare drums and a drum set dedicated to Danny made from their PSA (Signature) alloy.
