Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The Ahead TS were developed around Tommy Lee's needs (live and studio playing), with the brand's philosophy: to offer a durable, consistent, and repairable drumstick. Within the Ahead range, this model stands out for its long format and performance-oriented balance, designed for energy, endurance, and impact.
Who This Drumstick Is For
These sticks are aimed at intermediate to advanced drummers who play loud and long, and who want a stable alternative to wooden models. They are particularly suitable for rock, hard rock, metal, punk, and energetic pop styles, where projection, speed, and equipment durability make a difference, both in rehearsal and on stage.
