First of all, im a huge fan of Dennis Chambers, I met him 3 times, his drumming is phenomonal! My first pair was given to me by him personally, and i was sursprised they were so small, so thin! I normally like bigger sticks, like for instance Thomas Lang sticks, but these Dennis Chambers sticks are surprisingly great to play with, they feel slick, the coting they have is great for dry hands (Iike mine), and they produce a clear sound on the cymbals, i recommend these sticks to everyone, specially for practising singlestroke 32nd fills!
