Paiste Formula 602 20" Medium Ride Cymbal (Pre-Owned)

The Paiste Formula 602 20" Medium Ride is a classic Swiss-made ride known for its warm, silvery tone, clear stick definition, and a controlled, musical wash. It’s an easy “main ride” choice for players who want articulation that stays smooth—especially in jazz, blues, fusion, studio work, and lower-to-moderate volume gigs.

Condition (Pre-Owned): This cymbal shows typical cosmetic wear for a used cymbal, including surface marks, patina/oxidation, and ink/logo wear (as shown in the photos). Stamps and markings are present, including the Paiste “Made in Switzerland” stamp.

Why Choose This Cymbal

• A true all-round ride: enough definition for timekeeping, with a musical spread underneath

• Studio friendly: sits in a mix without harsh overtones and responds well to lighter touch

• Great for dynamic playing: works with sticks, brushes, and lighter articulation styles

• Pre-owned value: a premium model with honest cosmetic wear that doesn’t stop it doing the job
