Target Audience for This Drumstick/Instrument
These sticks are designed for intermediate to expert drummers oriented towards rock, hard rock, and metal, who want to play harder with less fatigue while maintaining a consistent feel over time (rehearsals, studio, stage).

What kind of attack does the XLTIP nylon tip produce?
The wide round XLTIP nylon tip delivers a clear and consistent attack. Its "soft" design aims for a feel close to wood, while its durability suits pronounced accents.
Can the sheath of the XL Rock Concert be replaced?
The original SST sheath is replaceable and is the reference compatible with this model. Made of polyurethane, it protects drums and cymbals while dampening some unwanted vibrations.
Which tips and felt heads are compatible with the XLRC reference?
