Fantastic Versatile Ride Cymbal!
First off, thanks again to CymbalFusion for another great transaction. You guys are great! This particular cymbal is amazing. I’ll preface this by saying I only buy/play Zildjian cymbals, and I was already a fan of their Sweet Rides, having owned the A version in both 21” and 23”, and the K 21”. So I already had a good idea what type of ride cymbal I was getting with my new 23” K Sweet Ride. Just like the other Sweet Rides, it’s a very versatile cymbal. Very crash-able, with articulate stick action and a well defined bell. But if you don’t like wash in your ride, you’d be better off going with a thicker cymbal; the Sweet Rides are all classified as “medium-thin”. I do prefer the 23” over the 21”, as the stick sound is a bit more pronounced. Being bigger though, means its crash is a little bit louder, with a slightly lower fundamental note. If you want a ride that does it all, the 23” Sweets are the way to go. Both the A and K versions are phenomenal, you can’t go wrong with either one!
