Rockband Rubber Tip Drum Sticks - Blue Tiger

Comment: Nice sticks, if a bit pricey. It is definitely quieter with the rubber tips, and I was surprised to see my scores higher than usual. The only down side is that they are shipped with the tips not on, and they are a bit tough as they are quite soft; I was afraid I'd rip them. But I didn't and all is well.

Comment: The drums sticks were on sale and I bought 2 sets. They were lighter than the ones that came with the drums and I really liked the rubber tips. The rubber tips make it quieter and add a little weight to the end, which I preferred. I've had them for a few weeks now and the tips already have wear spots and 2 are torn. I emailed them about getting more tips and they don't offer the tips separately.

Comment: Excellent product and the rubber tips do the job, mostly towards the cymbals which with regular sticks sounds a lot when you hit them...

Comment: I actually prefer the drum pad silencers with the regular sticks. I purchased both the pads and the rubber tip sticks at the same time though. After putting on the pads, I find that the regular sticks sound about as quiet as these rubber tipped ones and the regular sticks provide much better bounce on the pads. Save your money. Buy one or the other - not both. Not that these do not work, just that they are not needed if you have the pads and actually I doubt I will ever use them now. They just do not work well with the pads, in my opinion.

Comment: The sticks themselves are decent. The rubber tips seem to fly off at random, though, which can be kind of annoying.
