Maple is a lighter alternative to hickory. The maple sticks produce a dark sound and induce a softer play-feeling. The "Green Dip" coating ensures not only for better grip, but it also gives the sticks more weight in the grip area and therefore better balance.

I like the thicker 5B sticks I just feel I have more control with them. But I dont like the heavier weight of the hickory 5B sticks.
These maple sticks weigh the same as 5A hickory sticks, so that is perfect for me!
They last long enough I can play up to 2 months with a set (/- 10 3 hour rehearsals). Just last week I had a stick that broke earlier. Perhaps bad luck or bad technique / hit. For now Ill just order a new batch of these sticks.
