Good quality for the price

Canis rufus 03.09.2019

I started using these since I love black coloured drum sticks, but found that fully black ones look a bit weird once you start using them and the black coating starts chipping off (unless you are using some carbon sticks).

Pros:

1. Price: in comparison to other fully/semi-coated drumsticks, these ones are about 2-4 € cheaper. Basically the same price as your regular hickorys.

2. Comfortable: I have comparatively larger hands, and sometimes even 5B felt slightly thin. These ones fit snugly in my palms, and feel like an optimum size without any issues of controlling with the fingers.

3. Grip: the black coating makes it resistant to slipping, even if your hands are sweaty. This is - hands down - the best thing about these sticks! I have always felt nervous of sticks slipping out of my hand in the middle of song, but these ones ease that concern out.

4. Appearance: the fact that it is only half-coated means that the coating doesn't chip off on playing (unless you play with your sticks upside down), which means that they don't give the ugly look of having been gnawed off after some time

Cons:

1. The coating can sometimes look a bit old and the company's name on the coat in golden letters a little faded. Additionally, in one case, the coat started coming from where my thumbs and fingers hold the sticks, implying that it is not glued/attached to the wood as rigorously as some might prefer.

Overall, a good purchase for the price if you are looking for some grippy and stylish-looking sticks!

very nice finish.

Anonymous 07.02.2015

These sticks handle superbly and have an excellent finish. However, I'm in two minds about the dip coating.
At first, it seems like the dip would be ideal for those who suffer from sweaty hands, but it only works up to a point. I find that when the hands have properly built up a sweat, I'm better off with a plain wood stick.
However, if you don't have an issue with sweathy hands, then the dip does mean you can use a really light grip, enhancing control and dynamics.

Great

I can hold these looser so less tiring.
Wear out a bit too quickly but will probably keep buying these anyway

wirklich nicht rutschig

wavey 12.10.2009

Ich habe mir die Zildjian Black Dip Sticks gekauft, weil mir immer mal wieder bei Konzerten ein Stick durch die Gegend geflogen ist.

Die Zildjian Black Dip Sticks sind wie die normalen 5B Sticks ausgewogen und für mich die perfekten Rock-Sticks. Das schwarze Ende ist mit einer rutschfesten Farbschicht überzogen. Es fühlt sich angenehm an, beim ersten Spielen war ich total begeistert. Ich dachte schon, meine neuen Sticks gefunden zu haben. Allerdings ist die Schicht wirklich rutschfest, was bei längerem und intensiven Spiel Blasen verursacht.

Der Stick rutscht zwar überhaupt nicht mehr, aber selbst bei meinen Händen, die täglich mindestens 2 Stunden Sticks festhalten war keine Probe ohne Blasen zu verzeichnen. Seither nehme ich wieder die normalen Z 5B-Sticks, an welchen ich mit feinem Schmirgelpapier die Lackierung etwas abschleife. Wer aber rutschfeste Sticks sucht und unempfindliche Hände hat, wird sicher zufrieden sein...
