Forged from authentic 602 Bronze (CuSn20) and handcrafted from start to finish by highly skilled Swiss artisans, Formula 602 Classic cymbals produce a true sound of unmatched clarity and consistency. The Paiste Formula 602 Classic Sounds 16" Thin Crash cymbal is ideal for blues, jazz, fusion, moderate rock and pop, folk, country, and acoustic music. Made from Paiste CuSn20 bronze for rich, dark, and musical tones Paiste's traditional CuSn20 bronze (80% copper, 20% tin) is the same alloy used in Paiste's Masters cymbals and has been the gold standard for many cymbal makers for generations.
