14" Paiste Formula 602 Modern Essentials Hi-Hat

Product Description

14" hi-hat from Paiste's Formula 602 Modern Essentials series, hand-crafted from CuSn20 602 bronze and developed together with Vinnie Colaiuta. A modern take on the classic 602 series with a musical, deep and warm sound suited for both studio and live use.

602 Modern Essentials is the result of a collaboration between Paiste and Vinnie Colaiuta, and this hi-hat shares the same character as the rest of the series: a full, dark and musical sound with a wide dynamic range. The stick attack is soft, and the intensity is described as meaty, giving a clear but never aggressive character from quiet comping to driving passages.

Construction

The top cymbal is medium thickness and the bottom is medium heavy, a combination that gives the hi-hat its full low end while keeping it responsive across the whole volume range, from low to loud. The bell is medium sized and contributes to a clear yet balanced stick response.

Who It's For

A versatile hi-hat for players working across multiple genres who want a warm, musical sound with strong dynamics in both recording and live settings.
