Most of the sticks made for jazz seem to be on the thin side. This one is a 55A shaft with an elongated taper which creates great rebound. Since the taper is long, the balance is still going to be towards the hand and not the tip, which makes these feel very light. The tip is an oval, which is very close to the tip on the Steve Smith Signature sticks, only these are more rounded, giving a great sound on cymbals. Since this stick is on the hefty side as far as handle size, It gives a very good cross stick sound. I would use these for soft to medium volumes, but its not going to last long in situations were more power is needed.
