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 Thin Crash Cymbal 17" – Bright, Explosive Rock Sound
The Paiste 2002 Thin Crash delivers the legendary brightness and clarity that defined rock music for nearly 50 years. Crafted from CuSn8 bronze—the industry-standard alloy trusted by professional drummers worldwide—this 17" cymbal produces an immediately explosive crash with a silvery, warm shimmer that cuts through any mix. The tone remains well-defined even at softer strikes, making it versatile across playing dynamics and musical styles.
With a washy stick sound and lively intensity, the 2002 Thin Crash offers medium sustain that works equally well in rock, pop, and general percussion applications. The 17" size strikes an ideal balance between the punch of a 16" and the wash of an 18", making it an excellent all-purpose crash for drummers seeking a single, dependable cymbal.
