BONHAM Vintage Paiste 2002 Ride 18” 1608 g CLASSIC TONE Discontinued! VERY RARE
Here’s an easy one…. Sounds like John Bonham - because it’s what he used! The ORIGINAL BLACK LABEL Vintage 2002 18” Ride was a staple of Bonham’s setup. YES! The Factory “RIDE.” And there’s a good reason why - this 18” crashes extremely well and the bell is very strong too - especially for an 18” The Original 2002 Vintage Paiste Black Label 18” Ride. Factory Stamped “RIDE.” 1608 grams. Famous clean and crisp 2002 tone that has a “Stairway To Heaven” vibe when you ride it. Crash on it for a wall of white noise that’s clean but has all the hallmark of 1970s ROCK. The golden years. No issues. Typical use and a light patina on a nearly 50 year old cymbal. The 18” Ride hasn’t been made in years! And that sucks because the tone is so wonderfully familiar! But so hard to find. Fortunately the search is over…
