- $470 for a big box store guess at tone? That life is awful. And so we don’t live it here chez hazelshould!!
- Listen away to this exact Cymbal so you can buy with confidence and you need not sacrifice tone nor condition! This thing is perfect! Only played for the video!
- Long stalwarts of innovation, this NOVO China exemplifies some of Paiste’s dedication to new designs and sounds.
- A mainstay of the 2002 line, as you can see this famous NOVO China sports the inverted design. It’s like chinas went one way in the 40s, then went upside down in the 70s, and the Paiste made the upside-down right-side up….somehow…kinda.
- Paiste describes this Novo as:
“Very bright, slightly trashy, full, exotic. Wide range, complex mix. Fast, responsive, explosive crash, loud, clear defined bell. Very unique, versatile china for flexible application.”
- And that’s all well and good, however, I would not call this specific NOVO bright - it’s actually fairly dark, but definitely fast, exotic with an explosive crash. Yessir.
-
1686 grams. This is one of the THINNEST ones I’ve seen by about 160 grams! It’s very mellow and dark for the series.
- Of the others, I’ve owned this one is on the lower-pitched side and even has a mellowness when played lightly.
- Classic 2002 NOVO.
- No issues. ONLY played for the video. And best of all no guessing at tone!!!
