Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Are these good for a beginner?
Yes. American Classic is the standard student and teaching stick, and at this price replacing a broken pair is not painful.
02Wood tip or nylon tip?
Wood gives a warmer, rounder cymbal sound. Nylon is brighter and more durable. These are wood.
03Do they come as a pair?
Yes, drumsticks are sold as a matched pair.
04Can I use these on an electronic kit?
Yes. Wood tips are fine on mesh and rubber pads, though pads will wear the tip faster than cymbals do.
