"Cymbal-Friendly?"

Feature:
There aint any real features other than the replaceable (<<< did I spell that right?)shafts and tips, which are handy.

Quality:
Excellent quality. Made of alloy, what do you think is gonna be the quality???

Value:
Priced well. This metal alloy core in this stick is definitley worth your 30 bucks.

Desirability:
It's a very stylish stick. It matches my black Tama Starclassic nicely I must say.

Sound:
These sticks sound great.

Support:
They tell you how to take care of it, use it, everything. They're a very helpful company.

Overall:
This is a very good stick. The weird thing is, though, that they seem to dent my cymbals. I got 2 packages of Zildjian ZXT's and used my Ahead sticks. After I was done using them, there were these little dents all around the damn things...I didn't know what had happened. I have a friend who's got some A Custom Zildjians, and those don't dent but these did. I used my wooden sticks and they didn't dent them, so I don't know. I jsut used these Ahead's like 10 minutes ago, and they seemed to be fine. Just make sure your cymbals are withstanding the shock from these sticks. Don't get any of those gay brands of cymabls like "Wuhan" and all that crap. Stick with Zildjian, Sabian, or Paiste.

"Whether it's the Beatles to Mudvayne these sticks will hold up."

Quality:
I have broke a few but it takes alot.

Value:
I think these sticks are a little high. These sticks last about 4 times longer than wood so I still have to buy a new pair every few weeks.

Desirability:
The black sticks with the white tip is very eye catching because people are used to seeing wood. The first time I saw them I thought hey what kind of sticks are those "I want em."

Sound:
These sticks are extremely durable and perfectly balanced. I have used every stick made and these will be in my stick bag from now on.

Overall:
I think I will always use these sticks. I don't see how it's possible to find a more balanced durable stick. You have my business for life.
