Awesome Cheap Sticks
I started off drumming playing with Vic Firth sticks, I then moved on to Vater stick as I found them to be more cheaper and more durable. Not too long after I found Vic Firth Nova in my local store and was curious as to why they were so cheap, the owner explained to me that they were sticks with visual defects and not defects with the stick itself so they paint them fully to cover it and call them Nova sticks.
The playing and durability is identical to the full Vic Firth sticks so I decided to purchase some and they did indeed feel identical even at less than half the price. While I like the full black coating, I found it to chip off and mark the drums or cymbals, but it does provide extra grip and cover visual defects, I think it might have been better if they covered it all except the tips.
Overall, they look pretty good, play very well, last just as long as regular sticks and are about the 3rd of the price. These are awesome.

Nicely weighted
I'm not a drummer and only use these occasionally when adding a bit of percussion to a recorded track. All in all they do the job perfectly. I can't comment on how they'd stand up to heavy use on a stage etc.

Vic Firth 5BB Hickory Nova Black
These sticks are great for anyone wanting professional feeling sticks on a budget. If I'm honest I struggle to notice the difference between these and the pro series Vic Firth sticks! They feel the same and seem to be just as good quality. I have to say I haven't played any gigs with them so I'm not sure if they would be as durable as Vic's top end sticks.

Low budget/ Hoge kwaliteit
De Vic Firth nova is een goedkope stick met een even goede kwaliteit als de duurdere vic firth sticks, dus waarom 14¤ ofzo betalen voor 1 set als je er 3 paar hebt voor 4¤ meer.
De telsom is rap gemaakt. De rode en gewone sticks geven niet af op de cymbalen, de zwarte doen dit wel een beetje maar dat houd mij als metal drummer niet tegen!
simpelweg hoge kwaliteit tegen een klein prijsje!

Good quality only for this price
Vic Firth Nova is cheap, so I bought 5 pairs together. I break drumsticks fast, because I play metal and has a preference of holding them tight and hard.
4 pairs were super solid, last long. But 1 pair was so fragile, broke fast and I could find the wood isn't solid in the core at the broken part.
BTW, the black painting will stick on the cymbal and sometimes on the head of drums.
And now I move to AHEAD JJ1 drumsticks.

Very good sticks for the price
Have used these ones before and think they're great for the price. It's obviously not to their disadvantage that they look very nice as well and comes in several nice finishes to choose from.
Great feel, viable, eyecatching finish and extremely affordable.
Will definitely buy more of these in the future. Recommended!

Almost as good as the full price models.
These Nova Sticks are good for the price. I can't notice any difference in balance as opposed to the more expensive models.
The might not be as durable as as the others though but it's hard to tell without testing out lots of pairs over time. The other con is that the paint peels off pretty quickly too which is not major but a cosmetic concern all the same.
