ProMark Drum Sticks - Forward Rebound 5A - ActiveGrip For Secure, Comfortable Grip - Gets Tackier As Your Hands Sweat - Active Grip Finish, Acorn Tip, Hickory Wood - 1 Pair

Very nice grip. Nice and wheighty, very durable, sounds great on a kit

Best sticks I've ever owned. Yes, the coating does come off after a few heavy gigs - but I'm yet to find drumsticks that are comfortable where this doesn't happen. Oh, and I did have a defective pair that broke (one stick) within 24 hours - but this was easily solved by Amazon. In terms of weight, they're well balanced and ideal for Roland V-Drums. The coating doesn't get too rubbery and end up causing blisters - which is a huge advantage over similar sticks from other brands. I cannot recommend these sticks enough for any digital drummers.

Purchase as present. Good in hand. Printing quality was not pristine which is a shame - made it feel lower quality especially for the brand and price.

A few days ago I gave these sticks a very critical review because I thought they were substandard. After communication with the very nice folks at D'addario I learned that in fact the sticks were fine but what looked like a crack was a remnants of packaging that had woven into the coating. A careful sponge down with a little water showed this to be the case :-) So I also said that I did like the sicks to play with and I want to reiterate that here. They are light and fast and really allow my grip to relax whilst still staying in my hands! All in all I've done a u-turn from 1 to 5 stars. Sorry for anyone who took notice of my original review in the 36hrs it was up. Luckily I am not an influencer so likely noone saw it anyways ;-). I'll buy some more of these definitely.

Use these mainly for gigging as they simply refuse to fall out of my hands!

Extraordinary grippy good for all genres and over all good quality look amazing bet versatile

Sticks are great to play with nicely weighted and responsive Grip does wear through but still works great Sticks on average last me 4 gigs before snapping, I’m getting through these sticks way too quickly, had one stick snap within 10 minutes, will be going back to Vic Firth from now on

My son said that he likes them a lot.

Espectacular, recomendo.

とても使いやすいです。 叩いた感触が良いです。 小学生でも使えています。

Active Gripを試したくて Active Grip Clear Acornチップ Forward Balance 5B F5BAGC (406 x 15.1mm)色: Clear を購入した。 少し粘つく感触も有ったが、滑り難さも確かで具合良かったので、追加購入してみた。 同じActive Grip Acornチップ だけど、今回は Rebound Balance Active Grip Acornチップ 2B R2BAG (406.4 x 15.9mm)色: ブラック を選択した。 先ず重量は、67.47gと67.97gで0.5gの重量差だった。 肝心のグリップはサラサラして粘つく感触は皆無。Active Grip塗料が薄いのか、こちらが本来の手触りなのか不明。 塗装が微かに剥げたような白い跡は相変わらずで、黒なのでクリアー塗装より目立つかも。 輪ゴムは今回も2個と1個で、たまたまか重量バランスを取っているのかどうか、軽い方に2個付いていた。 0.13g/個なので重量差解消だけなら片方に三個付ければ0.39gほど差が埋まるけど、振った時のバランスも有るので、1個：2個にしているのかな。 前回購入した5Bクリアータイプより今回の2B黒タイプは、5ｇ/本ほど重いが、持った感じでは判らず、振った感じではむしろ軽く感じた。 リバウンドバランスということで、ショルダー部がやや細いタイプで、やや後方を持って振るのが正解なのかな？ 電子ドラムだけど何故かしらこちらの方が打音は大きく煩く感じる。材質は同じヒッコリーで太さはむしろ今回購入したブラックが太いので塗料によるのか、ショルダー形状に依るのか不思議。 ヘッドホンで聴くぶんには前回購入したフォワードバランスの方が粒立ちが揃いシッカリした音で好み。 追記 同タイプ2Bのクリアーを買ったら、73gほどで同タイプブラックの本製品より5gも重く、左右差は0.3gほどだった。

Very good. Lightweight and thin.
