Key Details

- Attack & Decay: Features a cutting, explosive attack followed by a strong, clear crash sound with an even fade.
- Weight & Feel: Heavy weight provides a sturdy feel and increased durability for aggressive striking.
- Volume Profile: Rated from loud to very loud, ensuring the cymbal remains audible in loud ensemble environments.
- Tonal Attributes: Fairly washy stick sound with a lively intensity and long sustain.

Use Cases
This cymbal is ideal for genres where volume and presence are paramount. It excels in Heavy Metal, Hard Rock, and Fusion settings where the drummer needs to punctuate phrases with high-intensity crashes that can be heard over distorted guitars and loud amplification.
Installation
The Paiste 2002 Extreme Crash can be mounted on any standard cymbal stand. To maximize the “lively” intensity and long sustain, it is recommended to mount the cymbal with a medium-loose tension on the wingnut, allowing the metal to vibrate freely.
Compatibility
Compatible with all standard cymbal stands and mounting hardware. Due to its 20″ diameter and heavy weight, ensure your hardware is stable and capable of supporting a heavy-duty crash cymbal.
