There are three main drum stick manufacturers, but Vic Firth sticks are made with the best materials and are matched and made with the same weight, length and straightness.  The importance of this can not be overlooked as when you play subtle and quiet, the quality of the sticks will malign your technique.  There are many varieties and you will find sticks of all sizes, and for all contexts.  From West London Drum Tutor, Drum Teacher in Harrow, London
