When regular sticks are too loud and brushes are too soft, Hot Rods are just right.
Hot Rod drumsticks have a lively, natural rebound. Lighter sound than regular sticks, with more attack than brushes.
I bought a pair of Hot Rods to use at my church where I don't want to play as loud. They allow me to play softer while using normal strokes and I can still build to a reasonably loud sound when desired with bigger strokes. The only drawback is that they chip on cymbals fair easily, which reduces their lifespan. I would recommend them to anyone looking for more dynamic control.

I have been playing in home setting for a long time. I wanted a type of stick that would keep my noise level down. When I found out about the Pro-Mark Hot Rods I got them. They are very good sticks. They were able to keep my noise level down. They also last very long. I have had mine for a little over five months now and they are still in very good condition. I think that it is very important not to play too hard with them and it is important to control your force. But these are a great pair of sticks and I would recommend them to all drummers.

The Hot Rods by pro mark are one of my favorite set of sticks to use. First the sound, i play at a church its a small building so i have to duck tape my head to begin and even then there is to much pitch with the drum but these sticks helped with that and even gave a better sounding attack.same is will the cymbal it gives a sound that cant be matched its just one of those gotta hear it to believe it things. Now the feel of the sticks is great too if you have big hands like me you will find that the thicker handle will be well suited for you. it also cuts down on the vibration of hitting the heads and allows for more comfortable use. so if your unhappy with normal sticks or just want a new sound then these sticks are for you.

These drums sticks are hard to adjust to if you never have used them. They dont have the same feel as a drum stick would when you hit your ride cymbal. It takes some getting use to when changing from something completely different. These are a nice addition to a stick bag with the similarity of brushes. For a nice soothing backbeat is when these can be used and they also can put out some sound too!

Perfect for getting that unplugged, raw sound...not to mention keeping things softer when the song or venue requires it to be so. Overall, its an awesome product! I'm on my fourth pair!!
