Background:
- Since 1947, Paiste has been unrivaled in its ability to produce quality value class instruments. Our knowledge and experience in cymbal making has allowed us to design and produce quality instruments with proper sound and function at any level. With the help of automated tools, we craft our intermediate and entry level cymbals according to our traditional exacting specifications. First unveiled in 1993, our 502, 402 and 302 cymbals received major improvements in 1997.
Made from our CuSn8 bronze, new 502's are significantly improved in sound, function and optics, yet are made more affordable, allowing more drummers and percussionists access to Paiste quality in a bronze cymbal. In addition to their trusted projection, vibrant resonance and musicality, 502's gain warmth and complex harmonics due to their improved features. (1)
