I purchased these drum sticks for my grandson who’s in the school band. And I’m telling he plays with more confidence and the sound quality is definitely noticeable. No chipping or splintering so far.

I started using these sticks after my drum teacher turned me onto them, and they just felt right instantly. Steve Gadd is arguably the greatest drummer ever, and it's easy to see why he chose to give his endorsement on these.Perfect weight and balance, very versatile, and hard to break. The specialized tip makes a bright, full sound on the bell, too. The black paint will start to wear off around the taper, but no big deal - doesn't affect the sound or feel.Great delivery, no issues.Happy playing!

My husband really enjoys these sticks. Easy to hold and can take a beating. We have a digital kit and these sticks are smackin some metal occasionally and hold up strong 🤘

These sticks are really good! They look the part, and the weight in the hands (in my opinion) is great. The dip makes them very slippery though, especially if you're playing fast-paced music and your hands become sweaty. I ended up purchasing a set of rubber grips separately to complement them, and haven't looked back.

Simply the best sticks I have ever used. I shopped around a bit on drum sticks over a few years. Tried medium sticks (5a), heavier sticks (5B, Jason Bonham signature, Gavin Harrison signature), and lighter sticks (7a, 8d), and a few more than I played for such a short time that I don't even remember how to characterize them. Then I found the Gadd Signature a few years ago and I haven't looked back. The instinct is to play these lightly, and they work magnificently for that purpose. You can play a symphony on your ride with the dynamics, and your hands will fly around your kit with precision. But you can, surprisingly, also get some heavy hits without losing any of the response, which puts this stick in a league of it's own. If you listen to Gadd's drumming, you know he's a master of playing with groove and subtlety, but he's also great at blasting out heavy fills that give life and energy to songs. These sticks capture that juxtaposition, and so strike the perfect balance. I've recommended these many times, and I've yet to have a disappointed friend.

Wow. Just wow. For years I used vic SD1. It's a big heavy stick and it's exactly what I needed to play the hard heavy stuff. Then I got decades older and the music I played was lighter, sometimes acoustic, sometimes small venues, and maybe more importantly, I wanted to feel the music not smash my way though it.So I opted for vics 5a and for awhile it was OK. Better than OK. But the stick didn't fit some of the songs we were playing. So I ordered a 7a. Oh I live 2 hours from the closest music store so I did trial and error with my friend, Mr Amazon.At first I hated the 7a. Felt like a baby stick in my hand. I marked up one 7a so they were mine. Tossed them in my Closet thinking never to be heard from or seen again. About a month later a new pair of hats showed up and I pulled out the 7a's to hear and feel the difference between 5a and 7a in the hats.The 7a won out. But the 7a still felt small in my hands. I got used to it though. Then I saw the gadd sticks and said let's give them a try.This stick is the absolute perfect stick for me. Longer than the 7a. A tad shorter than the 5a. More bulk than the 7a. Not much. In fact very little. But the stick feels a lot larger. And get this, the stick feels lighter than the 7a, but feels bigger than my 5a.Sure this might not make sense. But it does to me. The feel of this stick in my hand is wonderful. The absolute best. The sound off the hats and cymbals is superb.The rebound on these sticks blows the 5a awayThe one caveat, if it is one, if you cross stick, plan on the black paint chipping away. I crash with the tip of my stick but I have noticed how easily the plant flakes off when cross sticking.One more thing. If you like to see the VF flag to find the perfect rebound point, you don't want these sticks. The silver writing, with the flag, will disappear once you use the sticks. For me the flag and the bottom of the writing was gone after a 2 hour show. No biggie for me though.Otherwise I love this stick!!!

I've been drumming for 12 years and while I do explore other sticks, the Steve Gadd's with nylon tips are by far my preferred sticks.Pros: These sticks are super comfortable in the hand, I feel quicker when I use these sticks because you can feel that they have weight but they don't weigh you down through movements like some other sticks. The rebound on the sticks is perfect and they seem a bit top heavy so you can get a good wack on your drums. The sticks are ideal for playing different genres and for drummers who like to do quick roles or quick fills.Cons: Its hard to find a con with these sticks because they are the perfect stick for me. One thing is that they are covered in black paint which means when used on hi-hats in particular, the paint chips and is noticeable on the floor. but if stick chips are a concern for you you may want to learn how to play with brushes.
