Touring and studio drummers who need their cymbals to cover a lot of ground can expect much from the Paiste Formula 602 Modern Essentials 17" crash. This extension of the classic Paiste 602 line was developed in close collaboration with Modern Drummer Hall of Famer Vinnie Colaiuta for transparency, richness, and warmth. The 17" Modern Essentials crash has a pure sound that's not too heavy on overtones, an explosive attack that cuts through a mix, and a good dynamic range to let the emotion of your performance come through onstage or on tape.
