Great Balance but weak nature

Daniel Jaime, 13.11.2020

Let me start by saying I ADORE this Model Stick. Maple is a wood that feels great, sounds great, specially on cymbals and is light weighted, BUT, if you don't manage your intensity they go rather fast, basically they break. This stick is NOT for heavy hitters, I would suggest Hickory for that. This model is more of a groove and technique oriented design in my opinion. But just give them a try.

Just Ok

Light maple as you would expect, however the durability was not the best. Probably would be fine for a light player. I would not hit very hard but i didnt get the longevity I would from a hickory stick.

Sehr guter Stick

Dominik2027, 05.09.2016

Natürlich sind Bewertungen, gerade von Sticks, immer sehr sehr subjektiv. Das Spielgefühl ist für jeden anders und passt dementsprechend besser oder schlechter.

Für mich ist der Vater 5B Sugar Maple jedoch ein absoluter top Stick. Die Qualität ist sehr gut, was sowohl das Holz selbst, als auch die Verarbeitung angeht. Selbst das aufgdruckte Logo finde ich nicht aufdringlich, sondern sehr hübsch und zeitlos.

Das Spielgefühl ist - für mich zumindest - ausgezeichnet. Etwas kopflastiger als machen anderen 5B von anderen Herstellern, mit vollem, kräftigem Sound, jedoch sehr gutem Reboundverhalten. Für mich eine sehr überzeugende Mischung aus Geschwindigkeit und Bumms.

Ich persönlich mag Maple-Sticks sehr gerne. Sie sind immer etwas leichter als vergleichbare Modelle aus z. B. Hickory, dabei klingen sie natürlicher, dunkler und wärmer, und die Haptik ist auch besser und weniger rutschig.

Davon, dass der Stick schnell bricht, nicht viel aushält und schnell verschleißt, kann ich nichts feststellen. Nach den ersten paar Stunden hat er nur ein paar Kerben, und das bei teilweiser harter Spielweise, Rimshots usw. Ich frage mich, was man da wohl anstellen muss, um so einen Stick zu zerbrechen....vorher spielte ich Vater Concert Maple, nur unwesentlich dicker, und auch von denen ist mir niemals einer gebrochen oder zu schnell verschlissen.

Von daher, in allen Bereichen volle Punktzahl für den Vater 5B Sugar Maple.
