I use Vic Firth 5A extremes, with wood tips....the extreme is longer...adequacy I suppose Razz

. No, it has better control with a longer schtick

Vic Firth 5AN thats nylon heads, hate using wooden tips.

i think the worst sticks i have ever used are zildjian nylon tips of various sizes. Dont *Have a Nice Day**ing touch them, the heads always fall off, and im not a particularly agressive drummer

Has anybody tried the lengthened sticks? Alot of drummers are starting to use them now, and I think control has alot to do with it. They have them for pretty much all sticks now.

I GET IT!!! Laughing

Yah, we have an Easton Bat. I would never play any aluminum sticks. They are by far the most damaging thing for drumkits and cymbals. If you can break metal with wood, think of aluminum on metal. Unless you are so rich as it doesn't matter that you trash drums Confused

right now ive been using American Classic rock, but there to *Holy Censor, Batman* heavy for when me and my buddy practice, for live stuff their great and take a hammering...

Im thinking of switching to a smaller vic firth or Promart witha smaller head to get better ride defonition... these sticks are just to heavy when its me and a guitarest just jamming.
