I've been trying to find some good timpani sticks.
Now, i've got Cloyd Duff #1, #3 and #5 in my possession..and i think they are great.
Alot of big brand names such as vic firth etc. they have great timpani sticks but wht i dont like is, the shaft are made of wood and the shape is funnel..not straight.
i am happy with my cloyd duff but i want to expand my collection to give moe contour to the music as some large symphonic works need different tone colour.
So can you guys suggestion me any timp. sticks which suit my critiera? ( straight, bamboo or wood shaft)
I've considered David Morbey sticks, but there are just tooo many models, any suggestions on that too?
please do reply me. tht'll be great
