Vic Firth 7A Nova Drum Sticks (Wood Tip, 12 Pair) Feature

Affordable, Weight-Sorted
Tone-Paired, TipLock

Vic Firth's affordable Nova drum sticks are crafted of the same First Quality wood used for Vic Firth brand sticks. Each pair is weight-sorted and tone-paired using Vic Firth technology. On the nylon sticks, Vic Firth's new 'TipLock' process guarantees that the tips won't chip or fly off.What Makes a Great Drumstick?For almost 40 years, Vic Firth Inc. has produced the finest drumsticks and mallets available. Innovative design coupled with uncompromising quality control - highlighted by the recent improvements to our proprietary tone pairing system - truly provide their customers with thePerfect Pair. It is this commitment that makes Vic Firth the world's largest manufacturer of drumsticks and mallets.Here's an overview of each step in Vic Firth's manufacturing process:I. Kiln DryingAs every Vic Firth drumstick passes through the manufacturing process, it is inspected and reinspected to ensure the highest quality product.This begins at the sawmill, where only the finest logs are cut into squares. These squares are dried to an exact moisture level in Vic Firth's own kilns under closely monitored conditions which prevent stress, cracks and warpage.II. Doweling ProcessAfter reaching the proper moisture level, pallets of wooden squares are brought into the manufacturing facility. Each wooden square is then processed individually into a round dowel.III. Dowel InspectionThe wood dowels are then carefully inspected and graded into several categories, based on color, grain straightness, mineral streaks, blemishes and structural defects.IV. Centerless GrindingTo become a Vic Firth drumstick, a system of grinding takes place. The dowels are positioned in front of an abrasive grinding wheel which is turning at a high speed. The dowels are spun and pressed into the wheel which grinds the wheel profile into the stick.V. Backknife LatheMost o

Pro-Mark 5CW Charlie Adams Signature Hickory Wood Tip Drumsticks

Pro-Mark 5CW Charlie Adams Signature Hickory Wood Tip Drumsticks Reviews

Other Picture

Writer, producer, arranger, band leader, teacher, drummer for Yanni and Plain James. Length 16" Diameter .590" Promark uses only premium, hand-selected wood. Each stick is hand-finished and hand- inspected for that classic Pro- Mark look, feel, and sound. A consistent supply of premium quality wood means consistent production of the highest quality drumsticks. Promark's 40 years of unequaled success in drumstick production is recognized by the top wood mills in the United States and Japan. This assures Pro-Mark of priority delivery, and guarantees an uninterrupted year-round supply of wood. Promark's Millenium II? process is a proprietary system which is unique to the drumstick industry. This treatment actually strengthens the wood and improves its resonance. It reduces the chance of warping during production, shipment and storage at retail stores or distribution warehouses. Promark is now using an environmentally friendly finish as opposed to the ordinary lacquer used by most other manufacturers. This finish is completely non-toxic, with no waste or residue, which is hazardous and difficult to dispose of. It makes Pro-Mark sticks less sensitive to moisture changes than standard drumsticks. The result is significantly improved quality and consistency as well as a finish that is more comfortable to the touch.

Vic Firth Stereo Isolation Headphones. Feature

Designed to protect musicians from the high sound levels associated with their instruments
Drastically reduces the level of external sound reaching the ear
Valuable protection from potential damage
Automatically self-aligning for perfect fit
Broad foam cushions provide maxium comfort

Vic Firth SIH1 Stereo Isolation Drummers Headphones are designed to protect musicians from the high sound levels associated with their instruments.Prolonged exposure to these excessive levels of noise can have traumatic and lasting effects, including hearing fatigue, tinnitus and permanent hearing loss. These are specially designed headphones, which drastically reduce the level of external sound reaching the musician's ears, offering valuable protection from potential damage.The SIH1 reduces overall noise levels by 24 decibels and features high quality stereo headphones. Unlike non-isolation headsets, where musicians typically crank the volume to very high and potentially damaging sound levels in order to hear the music clearly, the SIH1 reduces ambient noise from the instruments. This allows the musician to play along with the recorded music or monitor other performers in a live situation at comfortable and safe sound levels.Designed in conjunction with Vic Firth Signature artist Rod Morgenstein, these headphones were made with the recording, performing and teaching musician in mind! When asked about the SIH1's, Rod commented, 'The concept of these headphones has changed my musical life! After years of using open air headphones in studios and practice at volume levels that were damaging my hearing - I can now use these new headphones for hours on end with no fatigue at all, and with no risk of hearing damage since I can listen at a comfortable volume level.'
