Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
Some drummers use these for the different sound they create. Others, like me, use them as a means for volume control when playing in smaller settings.
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Well made. The only issue is that once the outer dowels start wearing out and breaking off, the playability starts going down exponentially. At least you are given a heads up it's time to replace them as opposed to a traditional drumstick that can snap without warning.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
I like how these rods keep me from sounding too loud when accidentally striking too hard. Great for small venues and intimate settings. Their downside is that they don't do well at rim-clicking, and are a little too soft for woodblock or cowbell use.
Sound
How is the tone?
Kind of a "clicky" sound somewhere between solid drumsticks and brushes.

Appearance
Nice colorful look without being flashy.
