I've been putting it on sticks for years. Feels great, no blisters, and even draws sweat away.
I've now settled on the Vic firth John dolmayan signature stick. I feel a bit like a hack buying signature sticks, especially when I'm a huge fan of the drummer, but I've been through a tonne of different sticks lately and these are the only ones that feel good and don't dent my heads. | |

I have yet to try those signature sticks; I reckon it's time, eh? Ha |

I really prefer the sound of a ball tip but I need a barrel or my heads dent |

Re: What sticks do you use?
My present faves are my Keith Carlock Regal Tips. However, I ordered four pair of these David Garibaldi Jam Master sticks a while back and found them to be very comfortable as well. I have so many of those Keith Carlock models that I'll be a while before I really get through all of those first. Then maybe I'll check out more intimately and thoroughly, the DG Jam Masters as a primary go-to stick. |

Re: What sticks do you use?
my absolute favourite sticks are vick firth steve jadd sticks.
they are honestly the PERFECT stick.
they are super light, and honestly NEVER break. ive had the same pair for 2 and a half months now, and they didnt even crack. and i play heavy metal, like.. slipknot and avenged sevenfold and things like that. they are great for rolls too! and like i said they are super light, but still you can hit em as hard as you want! i HIGHLY recommend them they are absolutely prfect for any type of drumming, including jazz, alternative, r&b and anything else. |

I use plain old Promark wood 5b's and for lighter stuff I use the nylon japan oak 5a's. They're great! |

Re: What sticks do you use?
For anyone that cares I've switched to Vater, they're perfect. I use the hickory 1A's and the Power 5A's. GREAT sticks! |

Nobody uses sticks anymore; I use my BARE HANDS. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
