• No need to throw down $604 on a new pair of big box store Paiste Big Beat 15s” and guess at what they sound like!  

  • That life would be awful.  Fortunately you can hear what this exact pair sounds like so that you can buy with confidence.  

  • Very, very THIN and responsive Paiste 2002 Big Beat Hihats in the generous 15” size and in AMAZING shape! 

  • So luscious and warm and smooooooooth.  

  • Here’s Paiste’s take on these:
    “Full, warm, deep, wide. Medium wide range, complex mix. Responsive, giving feel. Broad stick over full, fat, wet open sound. Rich, pronounced, deep chick. Big, driving, versatile hi-hats for wide ranging settings.”

  • Weighing in at a light weight of 796 grams for the top cymbal and 952 grams for the bottom cymbal, these Paistes plays like incredible dark and responsive, THIN 2002 15s"!!

  • The tone is considerably DARKER than your garden variety 2002, as a matter of fact, the Big Beats could almost be their own series. It's surprisingly dark for a 2002.

  • Dark. Warm. Lower pitched. Incredibly responsive. Fairly complex - especially for 2002s, generous 15" playing feld. Perfect for lower to medium loud setting where you need a great response and old school sloshy tone!

  • There you go!  Sound amazing. Very musical. 

  •  Very light use! Amazing shape.  And no where near a guess at $604 for a guess at sound!!
