SOLD Vintage 1960's Paiste 602 Preserial 18" Paper Thin Crash Cymbal

[JerichoFrost]

...do you have any sort of inked label markings??? At 1400 grams, that's REALLY heavy to be considered a F602 Paperthin, even for an 18". I'd say it's most likely a thin crash. Still, it's really awesome to see a preserial in such good condition!

@JerichoFrost Hi, no ink stamps were on that cymbal. I use this weight calculator: users.rcn.com/cwalter1/cymbalw­eight/ I use the term Paper Thin for any cymbal that the calculator deems as Extra Thin or Extremely Thin. I also sold a 1503 gram 602 that was ink marked Thin, so I didn't have a problem calling an 18" 602 that was 100 grams lighter a Paper Thin. Thanks for your interest!

@JerichoFrost Also, check out the Blue Label Paperthin at Rare Vintage Cymbals, 19" at 1553 grams. It's actually proportionally a little bit heavier than an 18" at 1400 grams.

Thanks again,

Bill

I noticed a lot of 40s zildjians where brilliant looking like that. Id like to see some of those ;)
