Zildjian 21" A Sweet Ride Cymbal 031909S

[sideshowjeff]

Has anyone ever been blessed with the change to try this with a Sabian AAXplosion 18"?

I currently have a 20" Giant Beat which is too fragile for my playing style.

This might be the successor of the Paiste.

[TheBlinkisback09]

how do you tune that snare!!!!! i have ocdp trav bark kit and my snare is always high

[memphisdrumshop]

@TheBlinkisback09 Our snare is tuned tight on the top and moderately tight on the bottom. Do a search on youtube for "snare tuning". There are some great tuning videos out there.

[TheBlinkisback09]

@memphisdrumshop do you know an approx tension, or how many lug turns. also where the snares come in through the hoop, my shell dips in. ????

[memphisdrumshop]

@TheBlinkisback09 I can't tell you an approx tension but I can tell you that it is pretty tight. Where your shell dips in on the bottom is called the snare bed. It is supposed to be there.

[cool21967]

I recently got this cymbal. Wouldn't trade it for anything else! It's a very easy to control cymbal, very dynamic!

[musicxbreaker]

Which ride do you think is better? The Sabian HHX 22" Manhattan Jazz ride or this Zildjian??

[BandaDK]

@musicxbreaker This one, IMO. The Sabian gets too jazzy

[drumArthur]

Do you guys ship to brazil? If yes, what's the shipping cost?

[memphisdrumshop]

Sweet....

[PrimusRush311]

I thought this was a ride cymbal... And for everyone wondering whether it cracks easily if it hadn't cracked by the end of this video it's probably not going to crack.

[tomogh311]

Is that traditional finish or brilliant?

[MrDrumDrumz]

crash/ride?



[HEYYitsMEyou]

@MrDrumDrumz ride just ride but this model of cymbal has to be the most versatile cymbal i have ever played, the sweet ride is perfection for me

[wannabenj]

I'm looking for a ride that has a really loud bell that can cut thruany suggestion?

[thedrummerdude777]

@wannabenj Either this cymbal or the Z Custom Mega Bell Ride (but that ride has waaaaay too much overtones if you really want a ride that cuts through)

[stevemota7]

is there alot of sustain on this cymbal ?

[MMTPproductionz]

do you guys think i should get the protection warrenty on this ... does it crack easy?

[monstermash2008able]

is that traditional or brilliant finish? And is there any difference in the sound?

[danielmusefan]

@monstermash2008able

its a traditional finish, and yes it does affect the sound. brilliant finish tends to make a 'glassier' sound compared to the traditional which makes a dryer sound

[vfdrummer1]

It won't crack if you hit it like Travis barker does to his... If you play it properly with a couple of beatings here and there, it will last a long time. But IF you are considered a "hard hitter" every time you play, then I think the extra $60 would have been your best bet.

[MMTPproductionz]

has this cymbal ever cracked for anyone im just wondering because i just bought one but didnt get the protect warrenty for like 60 bucks so do you guys think it is fine

[BOOMKITTAY]

i play in a metal core band and was wondering if this ride would be good for crashing? for example like for some really thick chorus's

[RaStApAsTa182]

@BOOMKITTAY thats what I got it for and it works very well, not enough ping though for me. great bell.

[BOOMKITTAY]

@RaStApAsTa182 alright. then i think this might become my new ride haha. thanks!

[vfdrummer1]

This one? Or should I go with the 21" Armand ride?

[joeyhandeland]

The snare the Memphisdrumshop use is the SD4105 seamless brass, with aluminum diecast hoops. Its discontinued. I once owned this snare: (

[willingtotry]

man, that floor tom sounded wwwwwooooooooow. tune?

[TheJammyboy1]

I FINALLY GOT THIS!!!

[Craigy125]

that bass drum is not how it should be

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Just a fraction of a hair too pingy for me. 

[thechillindude1]

washiest ride ever made

[drumrastamongoose123]

this or the 20 a armand ride. i need a good crash ride cause i play open handed like billy cobham and it is difficult to get a main crash in position.

[dashman14]

these are quite basic cymbols. if your paying retail, your looking at $200 tops for the set

[flx0011]

I hate the high pitched ping you get from some rides and I also don't like rides that: when you play as a crash they sound messy and way too loud (possibly because they're two heavy),

do you think the Sweet Ride is my type of ride?

[ethangrobb]

BEST CRASHABLE RIDE!! good for punk 

[ethangrobb]

what tom heads?

[IntakeDeathification]

@ethangrobb I think it's a Coated Ambassador...

[TheBIGMAC147]

brilliant or traditional, I cant decide

[zapatero39]

@TheBIGMAC147 traditional

[IntakeDeathification]

This ride is EXCELLENT! Bow is good, bell is good and the crash is FANTASTIC! Suprisingly the crash sounds better than some other 20", 21" Crash Cymbal. Damn my dream cymbal :D

[loho174]

just got one today it is AMAZING.very very versatile...and of course extreme crash

[saturos13]

Do u usually put ur RIDE on ur Right Side?

[davidbaylorcarter]

what do you use in the way of mic's and recording gear for these videos? very natural sound. and a phenomenal sound at that.

[mrocdp]

Would this cymbal work for a "indie" band, kind of Interpol?

[SuperChamona]

Every single drummer in the world's goal is to have a ride cymbal that sounds as good as the Rev's. Wait, that's impossible, his ride cymbals is only made in heaven.

[joshuachan56]

@SuperChamona The Rev uses a 22" AAX Metal ride. To be honest, i prefer the A Sweet ride to the AAX Metal ride. Just my opinion :)

[SuperChamona]

@joshuachan56 I saw a video of him recording almost easy, and he also used those rides with the huge ass bells. I saw one at the music store today, I love the ride bell.

[joshuachan56]

That is 1 PERFECT ride! Amazing bow, amazing bell and AMAZING crash!

[MrMutron]

THE BRILLIANT FINISH IS ALOT MORE METALIC SOUNDING THAN THE NATURAL. I TRIED BOTH AT THE STORE, AND THE NATURAL FINISH WAS FAR BETTER, SMOOTHER, AND SWEETER THAN THE BRILLIANT. KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN BUYING THIS CYMBAL.

[eddkenny]

is that the traditional finish??

[joshuachan56]

@eddkenny Urrmm.... Obvious?

[thebaloob123]

sweet ride, man!

[livvielovechapstick]

what's the difference between a sweet ride and a regular ride?

[aeroman4life]

@livvielovechapstick The sweet ride taste sweeter and the regular is more bitter.

[PlanetDrumLtd]

Do you think that ride will last long with crashing? But I will mostly be doing riding.

[jjbb20]

@PlanetDrumLtd As long as you don't abuse it, it will be fine. If you swing from the dressing room and beat the crap out of it it, like any cymbal, it will eventually break.

[Necroborgie]

Why is the background black? Are you in outer space? :)

[Necroborgie]

Lainag finish ui mura mag maya ug kolor. kanang pakapin sa fernando gani.. murag in ana jud.

[PacisVictus]

Beautiful crash on this ride 'o.O I love it :) Now I jsut need me some dough.

[TheBIGMAC147]

whats better, the traditional or brilliant finish ride?

[Kempscha]

Great sounding cymbal and FANTASTIC drumming ability!! Thanks very much.

[whophead007]

@IAmJeffHardyMan Yeap. The sizes, tips, wood or nylon tips, all play a roll in how it sounds when you hit your cymbal. They make it lower pitched, Higher pitched, More pingy, less pingy, More washey, and even less washey.

[ckt510]

would this be a good ride to crash on? i'd probably use it more as a crash, would that be cool with this cymbal?

[drummerboy938]

@ckt510 yes it is used very well as a main crash :D

[mythkid1208]

Sounds good, but I like the brilliant finish better

[LeftyLP80]

i think this is the best ride, and maybe even best crash ride, on the market

[plasticfood13]

I got this cymbal today, and it sounds sweet.

[HighWayToHell2]

Is this a loud cymbal compared to other rides?

[outermostgravy]

@HighWayToHell2 Ehh, not really. You can tell just by when he rides on it. The stick definition is smooth. It isn't as piercing, and therefore loud, as say a rock ride. hope that helped.

[DrummerRC]

What cymabl is that on the right?

[memphisdrumshop]

@DrummerRC It is a 22" Zildjian A Swish Knocker

[EBOOKER100]

@memphisdrumshop do you get piad to do these videos?

[xEverAfter]

@memphisdrumshop it's only 1" bigger than the sweet ride, but it looks soo much bigger...

[dashman14]

@DrummerRC its a ride cymbol

[mistahmaxi]

Ziljidan just called. They say they want their factory back.

[armedwithturtles]

this is my secondary crash, sometimes i use it as my primary also and its great :D

[shawngalloway44]

im gettin one. thats all there is to it

[iamnitrox]

This ride seems to crash really well

[AvengedSevenfoldDrum]

Awesome ride. Mad versatile.

[rollerghost615]

I like it better as a crash. :)

[shootsbraw]

the perfect ride ladies and gentlemen

[n0b0d1r]

That really does sound good!

[chrisismename]

wow i think i love that cymbal

[thedrummiester]

i dont care what anyone else says. the cymbals that you play in these videos sound the same in real life. after watching your videos i bought a sweet ride for a crash/ride

and i am loving it.

[greenlanderr]

Greatest cymbal I have ever owned..

[IWillDrumForFood]

So the snare is a Yamaha 14x5.5 Brass Snare Drum with die cast hoops? I've been looking for this snare, but the closest I can find is a Yamaha 14 x 5.5 Brass Nouveau Snare Drum; is this the same snare used in so many of your videos?

[memphisdrumshop]

@IWillDrumForFood It is very similar

[franklinwagner]

@memphisdrumshop who is this drummer?

[danny510x]

This is the Ride Cymbal I've been looking for. Bright, good crash. Good demo by the way.

[Cloinloth]

This is a beautiful cymbal. The Traditional has a slightly louder ping and louder bell than the Brilliant. It is relatively thin but with the proper hitting technique it should last awhile. Of course, I'd recommend buying from Guitar Center and getting the Performance Guarantee. It gives me a piece of mind for two years on all my high-end cymbals

[elrojomuerto6x]

WOW this ride sounds so much better than the traditional finish ride.. im officially in love with it.. and im a guy that likes his rides with a lot of stick deffthis one is really nice i might just get it as a crashind ride

[wooltonboy]

Just bought one.....the best ride I've ever owned!

[thevilageidiot817]

holy crap. just got my Sweet Ride. BEAUTIFUL!

[TheGP8]

Whats your snare? love the sound

[memphisdrumshop]

Yamaha 14x5.5 Brass Snare Drum with die cast hoops.

[ZACKisVICIOUS]

what shell pack are you using??

[memphisdrumshop]

Yamaha Maple Custom Series - Vintage Natural finish

• 22" x 16" Kick

• 10" x 8" Tom

• 16" x 16" Floor Tom

• 14" x 5" Yamaha Brass Snare (w/ die-cast hoops)

[ZeroXX360]

is this a good ride for jazz?

[MoreThanLuck]

I would say so! I have one, and in my opinion its the best ride they make. Great for jazz rock funk anything you can throw at it.

[stix4Him]

Just picked up one of these!! Woo-hoo hott-hott-hott!

[drummerboi811]

good for rock?

[memphisdrumshop]

I think this would be a great cymbal for rock.
