"Just Buy-Em..They're worth it."

Feature:
Great for Rock..Lars Ulrich version look good. I play 3 to 4 nights a week anywhere from 2 to 5 hours at a time. Anti Vibration a big plus reducing hand fatigue. The sticks, though unlike many others, are very very well balanced (another plus to reduce hand fatigue). The expense..I paid $24.95 for the pair. Considering I would have went through twice that amount in wooden sticks (I break them often) the value is great. I have had these for almost 10 months and still going strong..Don't fling them either..highly recommend the optional stick wrap..great grip thick rubber tape. The less expensive cover(s) will ocassionally need replacing but the cost $4 or $5 a pair..not bad.

Quality:
No doubts here..they are built to last..and still feel as fresh today as when I bought them 10 months ago.

Value:
Definately a great value..consider that you would pay $8 to $10 for a decent pair of wooden sticks..they break, you buy more. In 10 months I would have gone through at least 4 or 5 pair buy now..you do the math. I paid $24.95 for each pair (I have 2 pairs in case I fling one),(Haven't flung one yet though) an additional $7 for the wraps. Good quality rubber tape like grip stuff. The way it adds up I get great sticks for less money.. When I do need to replace the covers which are quite durable they cost about $6 or $7 dollars.

Desirability:
Hey, C'mon. They look good, feel great, last forever, what more could you ask for..Don't let the initial price scare you..they are worth their weight in gold.

Sound:
Sound?..From Sticks?..The sound comes from the drums..However, being these are a lot heavier than typical wood sticks of the same size..they are louder..A good thing if you play hard like I do..

Support:
haven't had to contact anyone..don't know

Overall:
These are the best sticks I have ever played with. hands down. I love the Zildjian dipped sticks as well but they always seemed so lite. These sticks are a good bit heavier than wood sticks, hit with authority and respond very very well for a heavy stick. drum rolls around the kit after you get used to these sound awsome. And if you do fling one and grab a wooden stick, watch how fast you toss that one to find the ahead or look in that bag for another one. Though I haven't lost a stick yet while playing with them I did buy 2 pair. You would spend a lot more money for wooden sticks before theses where out.

Lars Ulrich Drumsticks Customer Review

Feature:
the features of the stick are a little weird..they say that it has a vibration reduction system, it kinda doesn't..i still feel a lot of vibration..but it is all good. overall..it is a good stick.

Quality:
the quality is the best..i cannot ask for anything better..it is really reliable. they never break and always straight. its there when you need it. and it will last as long as you keep changing its sleeves..tips and etc. but thats all you have to do to change and too keep. there is nothing wrong with the stick.

Value:
they are really worth it..for the price..sure its over priced..but they are worth it..you save alot more money than buy wood sticks..you only pay about 5 dollars to change and upgrade..and otther sticks are about as much..and they break..so you always spend 5 bucks every month or so..for me..i change every 2 months

Desirability:
it is the best..i like how it has white ends and a full black frame..like a magic wand. this stick is the best.

Sound:
The sound of the sticks are really good..i recommend for better sound..change the sleeves of the sticks every so often. new tips and also get the "ahead griptape" it really makes a diffrence..the sound is unbelievable great.

Support:
i have never had any troubles with the stick.

Overall:
there is no other stick like this. i love this stick. i chose this stick because i wanted to try something other than woodsticks. and they have less shock from the wood sticks. i dont' have any problems with it.
