Paul Motian's Paistes?

[RobertM]

Does anyone know what kind of Paiste cymbals Paul Motian uses for his jazz work? The Paiste website does not list his setup, only that he's played Paiste since 1970.

I think he's still using the old 602's and the Sound Creation Dark Ride. Dig around cymbalholic.com, someone there should have seen him play recently and could outline his setup I imagine.

22" Transitional Forumula 602 Dark Ride (basically a Sound Creation Dark Ride with more shallow and more numerous hammerings...so his is slightly less trashy and a little more focused)

20" Old A with rivets

14" sound creation hi-hats

Also, he uses stick with ball tips
