### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good By Today's Standards
*by K***N on November 10, 2025*

Good balanced versatile sticks. I mostly use these and 7As for jazz drumming. I will note back in the '90s sticks were built of higher quality and they didn't break or chip away so easily. I don't know if it's because they're manufactured using younger wood or what but drumsticks just don't hold up like they used to. Seems quality went downhill around 2000. This goes for Promark too.
