Here’s what Zildjian has to say about the standard model  K Sweet:

“Smooth, dark, and moody, the 21” K Zildjian Sweet Ride brings centuries-old Zildjian character and charisma to virtually any style of music — from rock to symphonic. Zildjian’s guarded B20 bronze recipe, rolled extra thin and paired with traditional hammering techniques, gives this cymbal unmatched dynamics and musical complexity. This ride’s clear bell and stick definition give it a broad range of musical compatibility, while its thick wash makes it a rock ‘n’ roll mainstay. Discover a new side of the Zildjian K Series with the 21” K Sweet Ride”

Now imagine all that but with better stick definition! Voila!!

At a factory designated 2648 grams, this K Sweet Prototype plays like a huge to Medium Thin to Medium FULL Crash Ride or Smooth DARK Semi-Dry Ride.
The tone on this K is Dark, slightly complex, warm, controlled and definitely articulate.

The spread is even and balanced and the bell yields a solid “DING” tone, which is terrific on a big 21” that remains crashable.

Big and FULL roar when you need it!

What’s great about this Big 21” is that it is fairly Dark AAAAAAAAAAAAND it projects extremely well when crashed upon.

About 250 to 350 grams heavier than the standard big box store model.

A beautiful Zildjian that is wonderfully versatile and collectible! A K Sweet with a beefed up, pronounced definition!
