Paiste Review: 502 Cymbals

History:

Purchase: First I bought a 10 in splash on musiciansfriend.com for about $40 bucks with shipping, then I bought the pre-pack set from musiciansfriend.com, for about $220 with shipping.

What I Like About This Paiste 502 Cymbals: They sound alot better than Zlidgian ZBT-Plus and Sabian B8 Pro, they were fairly cheap, they have a great look/shine too them, and they feel and sound just about right.

What I Do NOT Like About The Paiste 502 Cymbals: About my only complaints are that the hi-hats are kinda ringy at HIGH volumes.

Paiste 502 Cymbals Quality Rating: Pretty good, I like the machining they do, it has a "unique" look to it. The graphics on the cymbals are pretty tough, and they don't get alot of stick marks on them for some reason (might be the factory coating).

Review Summary: I was planning on getting the Sabian B8 Pro's, but after hearing a friend of mines 502's I bought these, I also think Zildgian is getting too big, so I like to stick with the "little" guys.

Rating of this Paiste product: 4
