15" Paiste Formula 602 Classic Sounds Medium Hi-Hats

Product Description

15" hi-hat from Paiste's Formula 602 Classic Sounds series, made from CuSn20/602-Bronze alloy and hand-crafted by Swiss cymbal makers following the same principles used when the series launched in 1959. Delivers a warm, full and precise tone with clear retro/vintage character and a sensitive, responsive feel.

Sound

The tone is warm, full, precise and easy to control. The cymbals have clear low-end clarity combined with a sensitive, responsive feel that makes them highly dynamic to play.

Construction

The top cymbal has medium thickness and the bottom cymbal gives medium volume. Stick sound sits at medium to medium-strong, with soft overall intensity. The bell is lively and the chick sound is medium.

Applications

Suited to low to medium volume and especially well suited to recording, though it also works live. A natural choice for jazz, fusion, blues, pop, rock, country, folk and acoustic music. Genres where the cymbal's dynamics get room to breathe.

Who It's For

A great hi-hat if you want a classic, dynamic tone with clear vintage character rather than a modern, aggressive sound.
