The inky-finished Paiste 2002 Giga Bell Ride, branded the PsychOctopus after its creator, sounds something like another famous large-belled ride. It has a dry ping and throaty bell tone that work well for metal and articulate cymbal work. But what surprised us here at GearNuts is how great this cymbal sounds crashed! The Paiste 2002 Giga Bell is an all-around musical cymbal, and its dark wash and definition suit it to a wide range of musical styles. The Paiste Signature series Paiste Signature series cymbals are crafted using Paiste's proprietary Signature Alloy. Signature cymbals sound full and bright, with strong presence and projection. They have a crisp, focused character, and articulately respond to your stick attack. Above all, Signature series cymbals are eminently musical. Signature Precision series cymbals are made from the same Signature alloy using a streamlined manufacturing process to give you Signature sound at a more affordable price.
