ShadesDrumset

#1: Pro-Mark 5A and 7A nylon tipped sticks.I use the 5A for more hard rock and the 7A for jazz and soft rock. #2:Vic Firth Dave Weckle and Steve Gadd Signature sticks and Rutes. The Rutes are a bundle of wooden dowels stuck into a wood handle and strapped together with a rubber band that can be moved up and down the dowels. This is used for creating new and interesting sounds on your drums and cymbals. #3: I use various malletts and brushes for more orchestra and jazz performances on my kit. #4: Ahead 7A and Original sticks. These sticks are a graphite stick with a plastic sheath around the main body and shoulder of the stick. They have a nylon tip that can be unscrewed and replaced along with the plastic sheath. I like these for more of a rock and heavier approach. UPDATE!!! I and my friend Mark Van Vranken have finally made my signature stick! It's about the same diameter as a 5A but with a longer taper on the shoulder and a really nice beaded tip for fast Tom-tom and cymbal work. If you would like to try a pair email and let me know I would gladly send out a pair. Let me know where tou live and I'll try to get them out. Shipping costs will apply.
