Is that HIS actual ride? or a version of it? I saw recently on e bay his actual Rude pie he used on tour, this one looks like a 2002...I would love to hit one of those............

i haven't played one in person.

but from what i can tell its something in-between a Giant Beat and a 2002.

back when i didn't just use vintage stuff i was thinking about picking one up.

till i heard it was a signature cymbal. i don't do signature things.

but that's ok. i don't go near new drums/cymbals anymore.

vintage is a way of life!

Yes Sir

I'm sure it sounds Killer. I'd like to pick one up for fun but I'll wait till I can find a used one...

A very nice sounding cymbal if you can fine one at a good price...I will say one thing on all the records/cd's from 1989-2010 Alex did not used a Paiste 24" ride cymbal what he used was a old Zild.K 24" ride i should know i still have the cymbal...Mikey

i did in fact try a paiste 2002 24" ride a few years back at steves music store in ottawa ontario canada. it's very paiste sound you can get a ping sound to a nice wash sound very versitle now the bad news BIG! bucks to rich for my blood Violin but still worth it

Here is my 24" paiste 2002, It's not a Van Halen model!! this is a medium ride!! it simply has ride black stamped on it, just like John Henry Bonhams!!

V>2K that cymbal is insane! Where on earth did you find one in that kind of condition? Those hammer marks are awesome

Hey V2k, man stop teasing me with all your Bonham toys Cool1

I have a paiste 2oo2 24 inch Ride. Nice cymbal. Think of the 20 with a whole lot more body and presence.
