Description
PAISTE 2002 Novo China 20" – china cymbal with a bright, loud, and complex sound
Novo China 20" from the PAISTE 2002 series has a bright, slightly trashy, and exotic character. The sound is full, loud, and fast in response, with a wide frequency range and a complex mix of harmonics.
The model works well as a pronounced effects cymbal for strong accents, fills, and open hits. It has a longer sustain than short effects cymbals, so it fills space well in heavier playing.
The cymbal responds quickly under the stick and has a medium feel. The bell is integrated with the cymbal’s character, but remains clear and well defined. The sound fits rock, fusion, progressive music, metal, and other styles where the china cymbal should be a strong part of the kit.
