The Paiste 2002 Cymbals are the industry standard for Rock cymbals as far as I am concerned. One listen to any Led Zeppelin or Van Halen album just solidifies that. Crispy, cutting highs, and excellent stick attack. It's hard for me to imagine a world without 2002's.

Product Description
Paiste 2002 20" Ride Cymbal – Professional-Grade Bronze for Classic Rock Tone
The Paiste 2002 20" Ride Cymbal delivers the iconic sound that defined rock music since the early 1970s. Crafted from the legendary 2002 bronze alloy—a 92% copper and 8% tin composition—this cymbal has become the industry standard among professional drummers worldwide. Known for its versatility and reliability, the 2002 ride produces a strong, articulate ping combined with a warm, lively character that cuts through any mix without overwhelming the kit.
This 20" ride excels in light to medium volume settings and offers exceptional crash-ability for dynamic playing. The integrated bell provides definition and projection, while the wide frequency range ensures the cymbal responds beautifully across different striking zones. Whether you're laying down steady grooves or adding textural crashes, the 2002 delivers consistent, professional-quality tone that has stood the test of time.
