Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: The Formula 602 Heavy cymbals can cover a lot of bases. The smaller sizes make great crashes (The very small sizes can be used for effects, or even hi-hats,) and the largest sizes make excellent rides. And that would lead us to this 22" Heavy. It has a clear "ping" over a warm wash. Prior to Paiste making heavyweight rides, this was a great alternative. It has a nice bell sound too!
