Description
The Paiste 2002 series carries forward the sound that shaped rock drumming since 1971, updated to keep pace with today’s heavier and more progressive styles. This 18″ Power Crash is cast from CuSn8 bronze – the alloy known simply as “2002 Bronze” – and built with a heavy weight for drummers who need volume and cut without losing musicality.
- Size: 18″
- Alloy: CuSn8 Bronze (“2002 Bronze”)
- Weight: Heavy
- Volume range: Medium to very loud
- Sustain: Long, with a fairly washy stick sound
- Bell character: Integrated into the overall voice
Expect an aggressive, shattering crash with a narrow, dense frequency spread that stays tight rather than spreading out. The attack is powerful and immediate, topped with brilliant silvery highs and backed by a heavy midrange body – the kind of crash that punches through distorted guitars and loud stage volumes instead of getting buried.
It suits players working in Classic Rock, Hard Rock, Punk, Heavy Metal and modern metal hybrids, as well as Blues, Country Rock, Ska, Rockabilly, Funk, R&B, Soul and Gospel – anywhere a crash needs to be heard and felt, live or in the studio.
If you’re after a big, brilliant, no-nonsense crash that can stand up to heavy hitting and high-energy sets, this 18″ 2002 Power Crash delivers the projection and character to back you up.
