Positive aspects of the product (pros):
|
Nice wrist builder, undestructible (sp?)(when playing drums)
|
|
Cons:
|
Heaviness becomes a burden, when taped, and rimchots are abound then a pain to get tape off stick
|
|
This stick is a very stable stick for use in Marching band or Drum corps to get the wrists warmed up before you move to the standard stick for show work or getting into the more complex warmups. The only downsides that I see is the heaviness is a burden as well as the tape removal if you use them in Corps or Band. Overall a good stick, just not the best I've had.

Awesome rebound on drums, durable
|
|
Cons:
|
A little heavy
|
|
These are really great sticks. I play with them all the time and have found that they last a long time. My high school uses Remo Black Max heads and these sticks get a great rebound off them. They get a nice sound and are overall good sticks.

Great Rebound, good chop builders, durable

|
Cons:

none
|

These sticks are amazing for a snare line with heavy hands. These sticks really do pull the tightest, snappiest sound from the snare, as well provide increased rebound too. These sticks are by far my favorite implement offered by Vic Firth. I recommend completely.

Heavy, Very durable, good sound

Cons:

None really.
|

These sticks rock, great sound, great excersise stick and great performance.
Very Durable, they are a bit heavy, but weight really doesn't matter to me. Plus it's good for practice, build up with thses then flip over to some hannums or other lighter sticks and fly.

Good for Practice
|
|
Cons:
|
Weight and poor sound
|
|
Very good stick for building muscles and practicing. Its not so hot when it comes to sound, it's a very dull sound. The weight of the stick it good when it comes to practice, but when it comes to performance, well its not so hot. A good stick to have, but no so great for game sticks.

Positive aspects of the product (pros):
|
Great rebound, weight distribution, material, durability, natural wood grain looks sharp
|
|
Cons:
|
The price, the smell :)
|
|
All-in-all, a great product. The sticks are smooth and of comfortable length and diameter. A lot of people complain about the weight, but I think it's extreeeemely comfortable. A little bit of background: I'm used to playing with my instructor's hand-made sticks, made out of condensed, resin-impregnated wood. The material is really dense wood, similar to what I just mentioned, and is damn-near indestructible. The wood grain looks very sharp.
The only real drawback was the price. $20 is a little much to shell out for a stick. Oh, and they smell kind of weird, but that's not really a problem, haha.

expensive

note: these sticks seem to have been rebranded 'MS4' since delucia switched to promark
i spent about an hour with these sticks in sam ash hacking away on several pads. i wanted to buy a pair on the spot, but i didnt have 20 dollars on me
i found them for 14 on chops percussion and desperately await their delivery
they are easily the most comfortable sticks i have ever used for practicing with, and they are very heavy. which is good for the chops.

Beautiful stick in the origional rosewood form.
|
|
Cons:
|
Very short stick
|
|
I have a pair of the origional rosewood sticks from a long time ago. These are really heavy sticks but quite short. It throws the balance point off quite a bit and makes me want to hold them a bit to far back towards the butt end to get a good feel. I don't use them much anymore because one of the beads is flattened on one side and just dosen't work well anymore.
