ok lang naman.
pero kung medyo hirap ga sa grop mo sa drumsticks, try ka muna ng ibang sizes ng sticks. kasi baka hindi komportable kamay mo sa size na ginagamit mo ngayon. baka yun lang ang nangyayari sayang naman yung pambili mo ng wax.

kung talagang madulas sa kamay mo ang mga drumsticks, tsaka ka na bumili niyan. let us know how it works out para malaman namin kung ok nga gumamit niya.

peace!

problema ko pag manipis na stick na ginagamit ko like 4A minsan nabibitawa ko siya.. nasanay na kasi ako sa mga matatabang sticks like 2B.. kaso di'ba panget naman na gagamitin mo ganung matabang size na stick kung minsan hindi ganun ka rock yun tinutugtog niyo.

different sticks are made for different styles of playing, pwedeng yung 5A ok sayo, but sa iba hindi...ewan ko mga bro and sis pero hindi ba mas Ok kung...try to feel the stick's vibration before purchasing? para at least alam mo kung ok yung response nito sa playing mo and at the same time ma-feel mo rin yung shock nito after impact? :-)
before i only use 1 type of stick, and that was a Zildjian 5A, ok naman ang control and grip ko, but when i switch to different genres, there i noticed that sticks offer different purposes.

In regards to wax...i find it too expensive just for its grip accuracy...why not buying a finger grip(parang hand-grip), it definitely strengthens your fingers(big factor on playing) and wrists.
Godbless. :-)

tama. i agree whole-heartedly.
kasi kung aasa ka sa mga products like drumstick wax, eh baka pag naubusan ka tapos out of stock yung pinagbilhan mo eh matakot ka na tumugtog? ok lang naman pero wag maging dependent sa ganyang products. mas ok na dependent ka sa style mo at sa pagpalo mo diba?

and also, i don't know kung ako lang ito kasi nawiwirduhan ako sa sarili ko. sometimes 5a ang gamit kong sticks pero minsan mas comfortable ako sa 7a tapos minsan 5b naman hinahanap ng kamay ko. di naman nagbabago tugtugan ko. weird. hehehe...

peace!

ako meron ako nito! =)

ano, 600php sa JB? ang bili ko lang sakin ay 325php sa JB sa alabang! pero di ko maalala kung sale sila nung binili ko toh hehe, matagal ko na kc itong binili eh, mga 3 months na ata, way before the himig lakas sale.  :-D

ok naman siya gamitin, i only wax my drumsticks kapag pasmado yung kamay ko eh.

tsaka maganda siyang pang-trick! i-wax mo yung drumsticks mo parang lumagkit yung part na hinahawakan mo. tapos ipahawak mo sa iba while saying "uy pre, pahaway naman oh, hugas lang ako ng kamay kasi kakakain ko lang ng mangga." wakoko. lalang!  :mrgreen:

hindi ba icky feel kapag meron nung wax? ngayon lang kasi ako nakarinig na meron pala drumstick wax

gloves work pero yung iba gusto talaga yung feel nung stick sa kamay nila.

kung nagpapawis kamay mo (pasmado daw?) bakit di na lang powder gamitin mo? pwede naman johnsons lang e di pa sya mahal

ang pagkakaalam ko jan..

madulas kasi ang finish ng zildjian sticks... kesa sa iba..

kaya nagbenta sila ng stick wax..

share ko lang..

..I'm sure a lot of you guys probably know this already..learned this little trick from surfing when I was younger..when we ran out of sexwax we would use candles to help build grip on the boards..

..this concept can also be applied to drumsticks to build grip and have better handling while playing..simply rub the candle on the part of the stick where you grasp it..voila! just like sexwax :lol: any ordinary candle would do..just don't apply to much especially on the part where rim shots are made because it can get your drums dirty..

..saves us some extra from spending on sexwax and other branded grip enhancers..

Hope this helps.. :-D
