Vic Firth Corpsmaster Signature Snare Drumsticks - Mike Jackson - Product Information
The Vic Firth Corpsmaster Signature Mike Jackson Snare Drumstick has a long taper and thick shoulder that provides quick rebound and a great rim shot. The long reverse taper pushes more mass to the front of the stick.
Overall, I really have enjoyed these sticks. I will occasionally receive non pitch matched/weight matched sticks from Steve Weiss, but all of the pairs of these that I received were fairly light. I ordered them for my drum line as I thought the weight might be easier on younger hands and when I tell you that every pair ordered ended up dead/broken, I mean exactly that. These sticks broke in the same spot (halfway down the taper) with all 7 pairs my snares had. I'm disappointed as they are the same price as beasts and I wish we would have went for them! Maybe we got a bad quality batch, but I wish they were more durable than they are.

Solid
Comments:
The sticks themselves are generally a
bit thicker than I'm used to, and they are also more back weighted. Overall great pair of sticks, Steve Weiss pretty consistently delivers nice dense and heavy sticks, so it's worth it to pay extra for the shipping.

Great sticks and great place to buy them from.
Comments:
The Vic Firth MJs feel great in the hands, they make really cool ping shot and full shot sounds on a drum, and Steve Weiss is a fantastic place to buy them from.

Switch to these sticks!
Comments:
I have have been using Innovative Percussion for my drumline program for the past 4 years, generally going with McIntosh snare sticks, Rennick tenor sticks, and this past season the Brett Kuhn snare stick. However, I personally always ordered myself a pair of Mike Jacksons because I love the feel of the stick on the drums, as well as the articulation at every dynamic, and the strength of the stick using them as click sticks. I got the approval to get a new contract with Vic Firth for my students, and this is the stick I will be sticking with permanently for our program. Get yourself a medium weight to heavy weighted pair, and you are set!

Good stick
Comments:
I'm a tech for a indoor group and I'm having my quads use these. They have great sound quality and good for a articulate book.
Overall-highly recommended for indoor quad players
