The Paiste 2002 Thin Crash 17" is a 17" thin crash cymbal, made of CuSn8 bronze, that is hand-lathed and hand-hammered, with a 2002 Red Silk Screen finish. The 2002 Series from Paiste was the first series, at the time, from the traditional Swiss manufacturer that featured a specially developed cymbal for electronically amplified music. This cymbal model is based on the legendary 2002 cymbal of the 70s. Naturally this extremely popular 2002 Cymbal series has since been further developed and expanded through new models, which hit the nerve of popular rock and pop music of today.

The 2002 cymbals are made in Switzerland from CuSn8 bronze. The manufacturing process is, as usual, completed by experienced craftsman and boasts a hammering done completely by hand. The bright, energetic and dynamic sound of the 2002 cymbal series is best suited for modern rock and metal, ska, rockabilly and punk styles, but also makes a great impression in classic rock, gospel and soul among others. The brilliance, clarity, precision and assertiveness allow the 2002 cymbals from Paiste to be used in nearly any music style. This cymbal boasts a bright, rich, warm, full sound with a wide range. This is a multi-purpose cymbal with an excellent full bodied crash and ride functionality.
