Comments

Stbknrlx: I was used to playing with Vic Firth AJ1's for jazz, but the truth is, they're too thick for ensembles where you need to reign in volume. Aj1's have the same width as 5 B's so are really better suited to slightly louder musical situations. These SD4's are great for controlling volume. Definitely thinner than AJ1's, but not too thin with a small bead tip. Great sticks all in all.

Butler: I think the sticks are pretty sturdy for beginner usage. It's also light enough for a beginner to use.

PamHalpert: Let me tell you what, these sticks hit stuff. And when they do, boy, do they make some noise! Way better than what I foraged in the yard last week. Feel great in the hand too. Five stars.

松岡祐作: 軽くて音のつぶが綺麗に鳴るが、なんせ軽い。子供のうちからこのスティックを使っているのなら問題は無いが、中学生や高校生の段階でドラムを始めるよって人はもう少し重めのスティックを買った方がいいかも。スティックの振り方だったり音の出し方がある程度わかっている中級者から上級者の人にオススメしたい1品です。

おやっさんやでー: 軽くて振りやすい。チップが大きいのでもう少し小さいともっと好みかなと思います。SD2と併用。
ライブなどで使用してます

Maxwell Silver: attention, le titre de cette annonce est erronée, ce sont des baguettes maple et pas hickory !

je suis un amateur exigeant avec les baguettes de batterie et j'en ai toute une collection de haute volée. mais ces SD4 maple (érable solide mais léger/tendre) sont mes préférées : légères et assez longues, moyennes en grosseur comme des 7A avec une petite olive carré qui sonnent très bien sur les cymbales faisant ressortir les médiums sans être trop "ping" comme les hickory.

elles ont un excellent équilibre pour le ride rapide, quasiment aussi faciles à balancer dans la paume de la main que les Peter Erskine ride stick (qui sont sans doute les meilleures baguettes pour le ride rapide en jazz).

le fait que les SD4 soient en érable les rend plus fragiles que les hickory, si vous tapez fort en rimshot vous les mangerez rapidement. mais si vous jouez piano, avec recherche de précision sur le Hi-hat ou les cymbales par exemple, ces baguettes légères sont un must.
la finition est superbe, extrêmement douce au toucher et les paires sont appareillées par poids, de ce côté là, vic-firth et pro-mark sont des marques de toute...
