The Paiste Formula 602 15% HiHat is a 15" hi-hat, that is handcrafted, from a CuSn20 bronze alloy featuring a traditional finish. Forged from the legendary 602 bronze (CuSn20), this cymbal offers a complete new wide and dynamic sound dimension, developed in close collaboration with Vinnie Colaiuta, and handcrafted from start to finish by highly skilled Swiss craftsmen, conceived and executed according to Vinnie’s uncompromising sound concepts for a wide all-round application. Formula 602 Modern Essentials cymbals combine the essence of the Formula 602 Classic Sounds models – transparency and stick definition – with the richness, warmth, darkness and a bit of complexity of the Signature Traditionals series besides providing slightly more pizzazz than its Classic Sounds siblings. The Formula 602 15" Hi-Hat features a rich, warm, lush, deep sound character with a wide range, and complex mix. This cymbal has a giving and responsive feel creating a broad, warm open sound and compact, lush chick sound. This is an extremely versatile hi-hat, perfectly suited for dynamic, articulated playing in a wide range of styles.
