"Keep buying wood sticks. You'll thank me later!"

Feature:
Came with set of replacement sleeves.. Not sure why.. Aluminum shaft snapped in half way before having an opportunty (or need) to replace them.

Quality:
I'm really not a hard hitter. As I said before. Broke aluminum shaft in half in similar if not less time than I would normally see a wood stick break.

Value:
Just keep buying wood sticks. In the long run, you'll be happier and probably spend less money.

Desirability:
I wanted it. (emphasis on the ED) After using the sticks for a short time, I really don't feel that they lived up to the "hype".

Sound:
Seems to have no discernable difference in sound from an average wood stick

Ease of Use:
UMMMM.. It's a stick.. It's as easy to use as any. I have played 5b sticks for years. Usually Vic Firth american hickory. Had very good experience with Vic Firth sticks. I strongly recommend wrapping these with some stick tape as the aluminum shaft is slippery and you will wear your hands out prematurely trying to hold on to them.

Support:
Not applicable.. Didn't use support staff

Overall:
I think I've said too much already.
