Solid first buy

Not much more you can say, these are the best selling for a reason. Good sound and cheap enough so if they break you don't feel so bad

Great Stick

Comments:

I've used every brand and model stick under the sun and I always come back to a Vic Firth SD1 General. I found out it's good for ANY genre. It has a wide diameter and it feels like you're swinging a 5B. Beefy stick without all the weight. That round tip gives the drums a fat sound, which I dig. Only drumstick that feels right in my hand. I have six pairs---working on #7.

Phenomenal Sticks!

Comments:

Quite possibly the best all around stick on the market. A great stick for concert playing in my percussion ensemble. This is also my go-to stick for Jazz drumset playing (especially in a big band environment) and it is even my first choice when I play in my Progressive Metal band! It has a fast, light comfortable feel that is bright and articulate at all dynamic levels. I really only use two pairs of sticks, these and the Jojo Meyer signature models. That's all I need!

Great

Comments:

For beginning to intermediate, even into professional CONCERT style playing; these sticks are the most versatile I've ever used. I have been using the same pair now for over 20 years. I don't use them on anything other than a concert snare, however. I don't think they would hold up as well on drumset... Still, if you're looking for a great concert stick without breaking your wallet, this is it!

Sd1

Comments:

These are the perfect all-around stick. From rock to concert work, they perform wonderfully, and the round tip makes for a full and even sound. I would recommend this stick to any beginning percussionist, as well as intermediate level percussionists.
