Frequently Asked Questions
The 602 offers a similar tonal character, but with less complexity and refinement; it's a more budget-friendly entry point to the Paiste sound.
While versatile, the thinness means it’s better suited for lighter styles; aggressive playing can easily damage the cymbal.
A lighter to medium-weight stick is recommended to protect the cymbal and preserve its delicate tone.
