It goes without saying, that Neil Peart departed far to soon. Lyricist, Drummer, Drum Composer, Dr. Peart was one-third of one of the great, most original bands of all time RUSH. For 4 decades, he blew the minds of musicans, fans while having a major impact on the music world influencing generations of drummers around the world. Trademark poly-ryhmic grooves...Improbable fills... wicked foot work.. cymbal mastery, all defining elements of Dr. Pearts signature playing style. Innovative drum compositions played with insane dynamic precision behind a labrynth of toms, splashes and crashes. From the first strike on my snare, it was obvious these are sticks designed by Neil Peart .Great strike action, bounce-back. Powerful and nimble, Just like The Professor himself. Balanced with a slight length increase, you can do a lot with these sticks, and do it well. Find your inner-Tom Sawyer!And carry on the Spirit of Neil Peart with a pair of his custom designed sticks.I highly recommend .
