Joe Calato developed the original nylon tip drum stick over 40 years ago. These sticks are made from only the finest American Hickory. They were the first company to install their own dry kiln so that they could control the manufacturing process from the kiln drying of the wood, to the matching and pairing of sticks. Joe Calato was also the first to upgrade the quality of the sticks on the market by grading them for straightness of grain, weight, color, and warp, and then match each pair.

 "Great for practice & adds range to playing" 2004-11-29
By Victoria Tarrani (Betwixt FL and CA, USA)
I purchased these as an alternative to Promark Cool Rods (ASIN B0002CZWWW). I love the Cool Rods, but wanted something a bit more 'swishy' for some acoustic pieces. This stick gave me the sound I was looking for. I also find myself using these for late night practice because they have a fairly flat sound that does not project.



The feel is natural, and although these sticks are around 5A size in diameter (I use 7A for playing), they are lightweight and fast. You can get a little rebound off your drums (not enough to do double stroke rolls), but practically zero rebound off cymbals. For playing this is a slight annoyance, but it greatly aids your practice sessions because it makes you work.



My pair has developed a slight warp on the stick I normally use for my left hand. I play traditional grip and do a lot of left hand practice exercises. This does not detract from the quality of this stick since I have used it for hundreds of hours. Indeed, considering the amount of use this pair has and the way I put it through its paces during practice, this stick will last years of normal, light playing.



The real reason to get this stick is the subtle shade of sound it can produce. It fits nicely between traditional brushes and rods, such as the Promark Cool Rods I also use.
