Best type of drumsticks for e-drums with mesh heads

In this video I will give you my thoughs based on experience playing mesh heads with wooden drumsticks and sticks with nylon tips.
I think that a bad condition of your drumstick tip can do harm to your mesh head. The threads of the mesh head will break and finally you will get a hole in your mesh head.

Very helpful, Rob! You've brought up some points about the sticks and mesh heads I've never considered. I'm glad you use the coated sticks, too! I haven't lost control of one ever!!

[@biekanez1]

Ed Molloy thank you so much for your comments Ed and I'm glad you liked this video. The coated sticks are really great but there is one negative thing when I use them. I get blisters in my hand because of using them, do you have that to?😎👍👊

[@minusdrumsPlusEd]

@@biekanez1 yes, same here, Rob! I play with the coated sticks sparingly (only when it's critical that I dont drop a stick) because of the same issue. And, of course, I make an effort not to hold them too tight.

[@astronaut2005drummer]

Nice video and thank you for sharing with us your experience with different type of drum sticks and mesh heads.

[@biekanez1]

Astronaut2005 you are welcome my dear friend I hope you will have a great week brother 😎👍👊🍺

[@GrayGhostDrumCovers]

When I played an acoustic kit for a living I went through a case of sticks per week. I played the same sticks on my E-kit for two years. Lol!

[@biekanez1]

Gray Ghost Drum Covers yes I know what you are meaning Gray. I bought when I was about 18 or 19 years old some cheap sticks for 1 or 2 dollars a pair. They were so bad that I hardly could play a few songs with them. They already broke by looking at them.🤣 have a great week my dear friend 😎👍👊🍺

[@BumpNrun69]

Are you using rubber rim on the snare? I find, I destroy different types of manufactured rubber rims that are available. So I removed the rubber and I'm blowing through sticks where they splinter in 3-4 days because of rim shots, leaving a mess all over the mesh heads, errrrr.

Hey Rob!! I’m sure that many people is going to find this very helpful !! Awesome job my friend 🙏🙏enjoy your Sunday!!!

[@biekanez1]

Anna's *The Queen of Classics* thank you so much Anna, when are you going to play the drums 😎have a great week my dear friend 💐❤️😎

[@Littledrummergirl2007]

Thank you for this I will use those drumsticks when I get a new drumset

[@biekanez1]

LilahBlue thank you so much my dear friend. I'm looking forward to see you playing on your new drums. Good drumsticks are very important. Have a great week Lilah😎💐❤️

[@rhythmantic]

Thank you Rob. I’ve been using wood tip sticks on VDrum mesh heads for over 11 years and have not experienced any wear on the tips. Could be that I keep changing sticks from time to time. I also prefer Maple which is lighter than hickory. Keep drumming my friend!

[@biekanez1]

rhythmantic - Sal D'Amato when I only had Roland heads I didn't had that issue also. The surface of the Roland heads are more smooth I think. They won't harm your sticks. Have a Greet week Sal👍😎🤜

[@BadgerDrums]

Great tips for eDrummers Rob! I'm currently using Vic Firth American Classic X55A sticks with wood tips and I find as long as you check the tip for any chips or sharp edges before you buy it then it's ok. I haven't had any problems so far. But I agree the nylon tips are a good option.

[@biekanez1]

Yes you are right my friend/Badger. Before I played the Drum Tec toms I had also no problems with my wooden Vic Firth sticks. I played 1 pair for 3 or 4 years. But the mesh heads of the Roland pads are more smooth, that's why I had no problems before. It's only because the Real feel mesh heads are more rough like sand paper. Some people don't understand why their mesh heads will have holes in it after a while, this is the cause I think. Have a great day my friend!

[@BadgerDrums]

@@biekanez1 Ah ok now I understand. I haven't played on the Drum-tec Real feel heads. My Drum-tec snare has their Design Series 2-ply mesh head and I've not had a problem with it yet (touch wood - and pardon the pun 😉😂).

Very kind and wonderful movie,dear Rob!!😄🌹✨Have a good week!😊~Macky:)🎶✨

macky@piano♪♪（まっきぃ） thank you so much Macky, I wish you also a great week my dear friend 😎💐❤️

[@PaulDes]

Heel interessante informatie, persoonlijk heb ik op mijn Yamaha géén "mesh" vellen.. het is een soort "foam" die heel natuurlijk aanvoelt, en wellicht wat te vergelijken met "oefen pads" ik zie na toch al een flinke poos van gebruik, absoluut geen sporen... ik heb dus ook geen probleem ivm mijn "sticks" ...de stokken die ik vooral de laatste tijd liefst gebruik zijn Vic Firth ESTICK drumstokken, ze zijn speciaal bestemd voor elektronische drumstellen. De langere taper zorgt voor een goede natuurgetrouwe touch. De speciale bollere vorm (barrel) van de tip zorgt ervoor dat de respons van de elektronische pads zo goed mogelijk is. De stokken zijn 41,6 cm (16 1/4 inch) lang. De diameter is 14 mm en er is gebruik gemaakt van duurzaam walnoten hout. Ik gebruik ook vaak die zwarte Vic Firth "signature" stokken (Steve Gadd) je hebt ze met nylon tip of met houten tip.. die liggen iets lichter in de hand (da's vooral voor als ik moe ben ☺)

[@biekanez1]

Paul Des bedankt voor het geweldige commentaar Paul, ik ga gelijk even kijken naar de Estick van Vic Firth. Bedankt voor de tip. Fijne week mijn vriend😎👍👊🍺

[@FranciscaRigaud]

Great advice Rob…. my husband Colin is a drummer too but he doesn't use e-drums!!! Loved watching… huge like!!!

[@biekanez1]

Francisca Rigaud I think that he maybe also will like e-drums and I think you will do also Francisca. They are a lot quieter 😎💐❤️

[@FranciscaRigaud]

@@biekanez1 Hahahahaha.... he doesn't play much anymore, other than when he is recording for a new CD, so I am OK!

[@SteveTheDrummer]

Very informative, great video Rob and great topic... hope you’re well my friend 🍻😎🥁

[@biekanez1]

Steve The Drummer thank you so much Steve, I'm doing well. How are you doing my friend, I also hope you are doing well. Do you have the same problems with the tip of your sticks on the ATV kit? In a few days I will upload another video of something new I bought. I think you will like it. I will visit your channel tomorrow to watch your new videos. Have a great week with your family Steve👍👊🍺😎

[@SteveTheDrummer]

I’ve been using nylon on my atv kit, I use wood tips on my acoustic kit. I keep 2 separate stick bags for acoustic vs electric

[@BumpNrun69]

I've found nylon tips don't scuff-up rubber cymbal pads as do the wood tips. Wood tips tend to leave more scuff marks on the pads, from my experience. Thanks

[@paco_drums]

Nice video, Rob... and thank you for sharing your experience... great contribution !!! 😉👍 Have a good week, my friend... and I hope to see you again soon !!! 😎🙋🏻‍♂️🥁🥢

Drum covers - Stamatis Kekes thank you so much my dear friend 😎👍👊

[@SKDrumming]

Even in acoustic drums I prefer nylon tip, better clearance in the sound, better attack and more brilliance in the cymbals ...

[@biekanez1]

Drum covers - Stamatis Kekes you are right Stamatis😎👍👊✌️
