The SD1’s in particular are thinner in circumference and articulate much like a pair of jazz/fusion sticks. They have wooden tips that are smaller and ball-shaped. They are well suited to subtle articulations, back beats, ghost strokes etc. Playing a cowbell chews up your sticks quite quickly and hickory will splinter on you. I would recommend a denser, sturdier oak such as ProMark in a 2B weight. These will give you more “cowbell” and last longer against the abuse. Hope that helps. **Q: Are they longer than the SD2 Boleros?** A: YES: SD1 16.375", SD2 BOLERO 15.75" **Q: Are these as thick as the Aaron Spears Signatures or close to 5A's** A: I don't know about Aaron Spears Signatures, but these are significantly thicker than 5As. They're an great stick for concert and rudimental playing, and I highly recommend that you have at least one pair in your collection. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ top stix *by S***L on 13 May 2013* vic firth..say no more..excellent. ive always ued em..always will.top quality from one of the worlds leading stick maker.always a good choice ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These will not break! *by T***E on 3 September 2022* I'm usually one for using 7a's but they break so fast because I use a china cymbal.
