Vic Firth SPE2 Peter Erskine Signature

My absolute favourite sticks. I've tried so many different ones, but this one just has the most beautiful ride sound, and a great bottom-heavy balance. I quite often switch between these and the bolero's, since these once tend to wear out a bit faster due to the small tip. If you're not happy with your ride sound: better spend your money on this one before buying a new ride.

I have tryed many sticks and stayed with these for more than 10 years... They cost a little bit more but they have a perfect balance and are durable. I use them voor jazz, funk, soul but also for heavier back beat stuff. For real heavy rock I use others...

I bought this sticks to use as my cool jazz sticks. I own a Paiste dark master Cymbal and some sticks just don't sound nice on it. This was not the case with the Peter Erskine sticks. The gave me a wonderfull wash sound and the pretty much play themself up. I would no recommend this sticks for a backbeat oriented music, as they don?t sound as good in the snare drum or toms.

I was looking for a nice stick for jazz, i tried different ones, but this.. this is the ONE, i don't know what it does but it really make my ride patterns flows so easy and smooth, the weight it's perfect, the shape it's perfect, i think i've found the perfect stick for me..

I have been using these for many years,I find them very versatile and durable.

I use these sticks for everything from jazz to hard-rock, and I really love their balance. The cymbal response is out of this world and you can get lovely tones from your batter heads, especially during lighter playing. Great overall feel, nice and light, and excellent quality as you'd expect from VF. They're perhaps not quite as durable as some other sticks, so you should probably stay clear of them if you're a heavy hitter. But that aside, I cannot fault them.
