Overview
A young drummer learning the basics gets a stick sized for small hands in Vic Firth's Kidsticks. The shaft is USA hickory with a bright blue finish, built shorter and thinner so a child can hold it comfortably.
A child-friendly size and grip are the reason to buy, with a colorful look that appeals to kids. Durable hickory should hold up to practice. Exact length, diameter and the number of sticks are missing.
Who it's for
Children learning to play, and the adults supporting their lessons, will like the small size and bright color. Older beginners or players with larger hands should move to a full-size model.
Pros and cons
- Sized for young children
- Shorter and thinner shaft
- Bright blue finish
- Dimensions not listed
- Pack count not stated
- Too small for older players
Performance notes
A shorter, thinner stick lowers the weight and the reach a small hand must control, which makes grip and rebound easier to learn. Hickory is the only material listed. The listing says the stick produces a quality sound and comfortable feel.
