New Textures for Cymbal Lovers
Cymbal work sometimes calls for something more delicate than a ride bell. Something less explosive than a crash. Something purer than a splash. That’s where the 4-inch Paiste 2002 Accent comes in. The Accent is soft and responsive. Its defined, xylophone-like character and airy tone add levity to those emotional bridges and buildups.

The Paiste 2002 series
This is the sound of rock. Paiste’s 2002 series of cymbals have helped define the genre since their release in 1971. Today, you’ll hear these cymbals in virtually every flavor of contemporary music. Made with CuSn8 Bronze (a.k.a. 2002 Bronze), Paiste 2002 cymbals are versatile and work well for a variety of settings, including classic rock, blues, progressive metal, fusion, funk, R&B, and gospel. When you need a cymbal that’s familiar, brilliant, and clear — one with powerful projection for the stage — Sweetwater drummers recommend the Paiste 2002 series.
