The Zildjian K Sweet 16" Crash Cymbal is the perfect example of the K Series sound - smooth, dark, dry and moody - and their fullness of tone and sultry, shimmering voice has developed a huge legion of fans. Their extra thin weight and unlathed bell help to conjure the darker side of their character and allows them to voice it with an exceptionally quick attack and great response.

This crash has a very versatile sound and an edgy character that will add extra scope to your kits sonic potential. It sounds great when opened up full, producing a dark, dry, silvery wash with complex overtones. It will suit almost any style of music — from jazz, to rock, to hypnagogic pop. 

Crafted from B20 Bronze alloy, this exemplary crash cymbal is individually poured, cast and cooled before being exposed to an expertly-conceived sequence of heating, rolling, shaping, hammering, and lathing entirely unique to this particular cymbal range. These processes imbue the cymbal with a dark mellow sound with great projection, clarity, and durability, and a beautiful traditional finish.
