Check the listing for details. Ahead Rockstix Bundled Fiber Drumstick Rods - Light. Condition: New. Listed at 27.99 USD. Need a quiet stick that's up for an all-nighter? You have two options: buy 2-3 pairs of your favorite rods, or buy one pair of Ahead Rockstix Light. The synthetic fibers in these rods are made from the same material as the bristles used in street cleaners. These fibers produce a light texture on drums and cymbals that's great for jazz and quiet stage shows, but they're also built for abuse. Sweetwater drummers were quick to note the durable rubber bands used to bundle the rods. Too often the heat shrink on other rods cracks and swells, leaving your rods looking like celery stalks. Pair these advantages with an ergonomic aluminum handle and Ahead's Vibration Reduction System, and the Ahead Rockstix Light are a solid option for drummers who want more miles from their rods.
