Four Highly Musical, Compact Cymbals to Go
Whether you're looking for control or portability, you'll find it here in the A Zildjian City Pack. The 12" New Beat Hi-hats bring the time-honored light-top/heavy-bottom "chick" to a new low-profile format, with a fast decay and focused pitch that stays out of the way of other instruments. Up top, the Zildjian 14" Fast Crash delivers a quick, cutting blow and fast choke that's great for many styles of modern music. Finally, the capable 18" Uptown Ride, with its unlathed surfaces and extensive hammering, delivers tight, defined sticking and a dark, throaty wash with tremendous musical potential. Percussionists, session players, and working drummers will all find something to love in the Zildjian A Series City Pack from Sweetwater.
12" A New Beat Hi-hats
Quick and cutting, these 12" hats are a novel addition to the celebrated New Beat lineage. They're comprised of a lighter top on a more musical bottom, able to deliver a responsive foot pump, a musical wash, and tremendous volume when you need it. The 12" size goes great with smaller drum sets, cajon kits, and percussion setups. Symmetrical machine hammering and lathing add brightness and decibels to Zildjian's ages-old B20 bronze recipe.
14" A Fast Crash
With its high pitch and focused attack, the A Zildjian 14" Fast Crash has no trouble connecting with your listeners. Its fun, fast size works great for urban and electronic music, yet its sheer output is well suited for rock and metal. Best of all, it packs light in a case and tucks easily under your arm for convenient transport. The Fast Crash's thin weight brings out the best in the B20 bronze.
18" A Uptown Ride
This Uptown Ride could be the perfect mix of convenience and musicality. Sticking remains tight and defined on the upper bow and bell, with a dark, throaty wash emerging as you move toward the edge, and a devilish crash on tap when you need projection. For swing to rock, studio to stage, the 18" A Uptown Ride is always a good time. Deep, extensive hammering covers the entire unlathed surface of this B20 bronze ride, resulting in the sort of expressiveness and complexity that serious drummers demand.

The Original Bundled-dowel Drumsticks
Promark is the originator of today's rod drumsticks. Drummers flock to these bundled-dowel sticks for their reduced volume and creative textures around the kit. And since Rods are available in four flavors — from the original Hot Rods and reduced-volume Cool Rods to the heavy-hitting Lightning Rods and Thunder Rods — Promark has a sound that every player is sure to love. When sticks are too loud but brushes are too soft, Sweetwater drummers recommend Promark Rods to our customers and friends.
Promark Rods: the sticks that saved rock 'n' roll
Promark Rods helped save one of rock's most popular Unplugged sessions: Nirvana's
MTV Unplugged in New York
. Drummer Dave Grohl, famous for his Animal-like playing approach, had trouble adapting to the acoustic setting, and frontman Kurt Cobain started getting cold feet. "The thing about
Unplugged
is," said producer Alex Coletti, "if the drummer doesn't really, really get it under control, it brings the show to a bad-sounding electric show instead of a good-sounding acoustic show." Alex's assistant bought Dave a set of Hot Rods the day of taping, and the rest is history. Good thing, too — up until the switch, there was talk of Dave not joining the group for the sessions, which would have been a major blow to millions of us Nirvana fans in the '90s.
