I feel the stick pairing is better with this brand ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great but not very consistent *by O***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 February 2020* They are my favourite pair of sticks however they are not perfect. When ever I order these I always buy two pairs because the sticks are not same. For example one pair may be really light and the other is really heavy. But I don’t mind that much really. The durability on them is alright. I gig quite a lot and I play quite loud especially snare drum. they tend to last a few months before they become to broken.Overall they are great but very consistent, also fairly cheap. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, solid sticks. Can take the punishment and last the distance. *by S***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 November 2016* I guess I'm a bit of a heavy hitter. I tend to go through el-cheapo sticks in about 20 minutes. I've enjoyed Vic Firth and ProMark sticks in the past but I wanted to try summat else for a change. These hickory 5B sticks are the heaviest I've handled, but they're certainly sturdy enough for the job. 12 hours of playing so far and they barely looked touched. A wee bit o' sandpaper and they'd look new. These have already proved to be a better buy than the cheap sticks by Stagg et al, and if they get to the 2 week mark, they'll equal ProMark for durability. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/88279497-vater-vep5aw-extended-play-series-5a-wood-tip-drum-stick](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/88279497-vater-vep5aw-extended-play-series-5a-wood-tip-drum-stick) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
