Zildjian

All-purpose ride with medium overtones.

The Zildjian A Series Sweet Ride Brilliant Finish is the perfect ride for crashing. The A Series Zildjian is the world's most popular and versatile cymbal. Created from cast bronze alloy of 80% copper, 20% tin, and traces of silver, it is symmetrically machine hammered and lathed with a traditional wide groove. The result is an exuberant cymbal that bursts with a classic voice that is pure, bright, and expressive. Its brilliant finish makes this cymbal gleam under the stage lights. 21".

best ride cymbal EVAR!

I happened to get the brilliant finish version of this cymbal because it matches my zildjian a customs. My friend has the traditional finish version, and I loved that, so I decided to get this one mostly for the looks, and I have to say that I like it 100 times better than the already amazing traditional sweet ride. I has a beautiful glassy ping to it with a slight wash under it, which sounds great for pretty much all musical styles. When used as a crash, it has an amazing full sound that is also clear and glassy. Don't settle for anything less than the best - buy this cymbal!

I bought this cymbal last week and I am really impressed. Kinda washy but has a nice ping. Good crash sound too. I play anything from soft jazz to death metal and it worked for all of the types of music I play. Over all great cymbal.

Worlds #1 Cymbal.

This is by far my personal favorite. What a fantastic instrument. It's applications are nearly endless, from a medium ride feel, to a full on crash with the ability to build dynamics and even articulate distinct ride notes while in the midst of a more washy crash groove. For the amount of wash this cymbal is capable of, the bell itself has more ping than expected, which offers more variety when needed. There is nothing negative I could possibly say about this cymbal. It is versatile, musical, and durable. The best way I can sum this cymbal up is: If you can only bring one cymbal with you to a gig or in studio this is the cymbal. You will not be disappointed with this in your arsenal.
