Feature:
The features on these drumsticks are great. They are both the exact same weight and are perfectly streight. They are the perfect weight two, not too heavy, not too light. The dip coating prevides the perfect grip. I had a pair of painted drumsticks that would fly out of my hands if my palms were too sweaty. These drumsticks would never do that. The tacky dip coating prevents it.

Quality:
These drumsticks are great ecxept for the one that broke. I have a few pairs of these drumsticks and one broke. I think it might have been cracked in the place where i bought it though, because none of the other ones have broke, and they are all played about the same amount of time.

Value:
This product is definitely worth the selling price.

Desirability:
These drumsticks are really nice. They look good, feel good while playing, and sound good.

Sound:
The 5a dip sound great on my drum set. I have a 5a wood pair and i love the bright, controled sound i get when using it on cymbals. Also it sound great on the drums. It sounds better using it on stage than in my practice room.

Ease of Use:
These drumsticks are very playable and musical. They previde you maximum control and comfort.

Support:
I have not delt with the company. I didnt try to return the drumstick, i just put some carpender's wood glue on them and they were good as new.

Overall:
I think I will buy mostly these drumsticks from now on.
