Ahead 2B Aluminum-core Drumstick Pair with Vibration Reduction System
More Durable and Comfortable Than Wood
Broken sticks are a bummer - especially in the middle of a recorded take or live set. And We know replacing those wood drumsticks gets expensive. That's why we're pleased to carry Ahead drumsticks. These aluminum-core sticks are the perfect option for many drummers out there. They last 6-10 times longer than wood and are claimed to be safer on the wrists, safer on cymbals, and harder hitting with less effort. Ahead 2B drumsticks run a little smaller and lighter than traditional 2Bs, which should give you endurance for those late nights and speed for those technical fills.
Ahead drumsticks: ahead of their time
Drummer and engineer Rick Grossman recognized a trend in sporting goods in the early 1990s. Traditional wood baseball bats and hockey sticks were being replaced with light and durable aluminum ones. Grossman wondered if the same technology could be applied to drumsticks. Grossman developed a prototype that his company eventually sold to Bob Kasha, and thus, the Ahead company was born. Ahead drumsticks have found favor among metal artists and heavy hitters across the globe, and today they can be seen in the hands of Lars Ulrich, Mick Fleetwood, and Tommy Lee, just to name a few.
