Overview

Nice way to add color to your set's tone. From the line developed in the early 70s specifically for amplified music.

Paiste 2002 Accent Cymbals sound bright, brilliant, and warm. Narrow range, clean mix. Very responsive feel. Slightly shattering, explosive attack with warm, mellow bell-like fade. Features an exotic feeling, very dominant center tone with soft, swirling over- and undertones. Come as a pair. In addition to use as accent cymbals, could also be used as very unusual mini hats or mounted upside down over a ride bell.
