I bought these initially because I like the rubber dip on the handles. They work well for almost all kinds of music. They seem to be balanced quite well and they last a long time. I've included a photo of what they look like after several years of use. I get a lot of mileage out of mine. I've never broken a pair not that I tend to break sticks anyway. I've played rock gigs, Church gigs etc. with these. They are loud enough for most venues without being too loud. I like the wood tip especially for the cymbal sound which tends to be a bit darker than plastic tips. Overall they work very well for my needs. The Gold embossing tends to come off after a while but I don't really care about that anyway. It's just cosmetic

These are great feeling drumsticks. I really like the long taper and elongated tip. I am not too fond of the purple finish and would probably prefer the diameter of .550 over the .545. Unfortunately with this size being between a 7A and 5A there's not a lot offered with a dipped finish in any brand of drumstick.

I like the autograhed sticks. I also liked seeing the purple coloring. I have a friend whose favorite color is purple. I am not sure what size they are. But, they felt longer than my Vic Firth 5A-size sticks. But, if nothing else it is difficult to go wrong with sticks that are autographed by one of the world's most renowned drummers. Also, being designed by Zildjian means that the quality is probably excellent. How else would they account for over half (?) of the world's cymbal sales for over 300 years? ☺

I love these sticks! Great feel. Great quality. Good for practice, as well concerts.

Great sticks!! The dip grip really gives you something to hang onto. Also like the extra reach.
