drum sticks

There are so many variety of drum stick, which one are we going to use is so depends to the character the music we played. If you want a brighter, more distinctive sound when you use them on cymbals we can choose plastic sticks. Or if you want to hear a clear sound when you hit cymbals, the nylon tips is the best choice but they might cost a little bit more than wood tips. So despite the need of sound, the price is also a thing to think about. A nylon tip is securely glued onto the end of the wooden stick that you pay top-dollar for. The cheap nylon tips are not glued on as securely. I guess they save money by using cheap glue. These tips can fly off without warning while you're playing, lodging themselves into the eye sockets of your screaming band mates. You'll sometimes see sticks made by one manufacturer or another that are named after a famous drummer. These are usually slight variations on a standard size, and they usually cost a little bit more because the person after whom they're named is just really, really cool. It's certainly not a bad idea to check out a pair named after a drum hero of yours, but don't expect to magically sound as good as your hero by merely using his sticks. You might also see sticks that are not named after someone, but also are not standard sizes.These are usually sizes that fall in between the standard sizes. If you want to check these out, it's important to ask "Oh, these are like 5As but a quarter-inch longer", or "These are in between a 5A and a 5B". If you've tried a standard size and it never feels quite right, some of these in between sizes are worth checking out. One of them might be the perfect stick for you. Ten Pairs of Sticks for a Dollar: just Say No! At some point very soon in your future, you might walk into a large music store and notice that there are some sticks named after the store that cost so little that it seems like the price must be a mistake. The mistake would be for you to buy them. I know it's tempting: Why would you want to pay up to $10 for one pair of sticks when you can get 10 pairs for the same $10? For one thing, drumsticks are made of wood, and wood can be very inconsistent.
