Frequently Asked Questions
The Signature line is generally more complex and nuanced, with a longer, more shimmering sustain; the 2002 is more direct and focused.
Like all bronze cymbals, it’s susceptible to cracking with improper care or excessive hammering, but Paiste’s bronze alloy offers good durability.
While versatile, its projection means it's best suited for mid-sized to larger kits where its voice won’t be overwhelmed.
