The Ahead XRA Aluminium Drumsticks is a set of 16" XRA drumsticks, with a 0.54" diameter, a 0.8mm aluminium wall, a medium taper, and a stock tip. Similar to the 5A drumstick yet with the look of a wood drumstick, this is a set of light-weight and fast drumsticks, with a mini ball tip action that are great for all musical styles, especially country music. These drumsticks produce 50% less shock than wooden drumsticks and last 6 to 10 times longer than wood drumsticks, reaching 5% more rebound than wooden drumsticks. Made of a high precision alloy core these drumsticks feature a guaranteed consistent weight and balance variation of less than 1%. Featuring replaceable covers, tips and rings, these drumsticks possess a high quality, unbreakable nylon tip that provides a brighter, more articulate sound. Super-hard polyurethane replaceable covers protect your drumsticks and your gear, and ergonomically tuned handles and a built-in Vibration Control System (VRS) rounds off these impressive drumsticks.
