Best news for a Porcaro geek like me.

Been hunting these cymbals down. And Can't wait to try these as a fresh product.

Anyone at NAMM had a closer look at these?

My understanding is that these cymbals more closely resemble the 602's of the 70's. Not the coveted pre-serial ones of the 60's and not the blue labels that I Identify with Jeff Porcaro.

The hats are of the sound-edge type.

You can hear the sound files here at Paiste's website:

I think I'm going to have to buy the set of them minus the flat ride.

It took them long enough! Nice assortment....been there and done that way too long ago! I like Paiste, alot...the older Signature series...not the newer ones or the Turkish made ones. Yeah, pricey as all get out...just like most companies products of late!

I can't wait to check them out at NAMM for sure. JR's signature 24" ride too.

I'm really digging Paiste's new stuff. I can't wait to hear them in person.

I hate Paiste because almost Paiste cymbal I hit I like. Nothing like a fresh set of dark crisp hihats, as they lose the crispness after years of playing, but still cool.

Oh come on, those prices are just absurd.
