To cut your volume, just change your sticks!
Want to reduce the volume of your drums and cymbals without adjusting how you play or getting into low-volume gear? Just change your sticks. With Silent Sticks Thick-X-Grip you keep the feel – especially with the new larger-diameter shaft with anti-slip X-Grips – and the tone but cut the volume by +/- 50%. Our exclusive Dual-Twist Reflex Tip® is the magic. To cut your bass drum volume, add a Silent Beater.
Your weapon of choice for most situations: a nice thick and firm X-Grip in the size of a 5A stick gives you enough control, the Dual-Twist-Reflex-Tip from hard nylon gives you a nice attack on both cymbals and toms, so close to the sound of regular sticks, only the volume difference will give it away. Can be used on both acoustic and e-drums.
These are some websites that have tested and talked about Silent Sticks Thick-X-Grip:

It’s all in your head!
Struggling with a good acoustic sound when playing less loud / acoustic? Let us introduce Adoro Heritage Heads to you!
By using a new innovative fibre material, we have optimized the warm sound of the heads and at the same time achieved maximum durability. In contrast to conventional cellulose-mylar constructions of other brands, the Heritage heads are extremely hard-wearing and still offer the unique sound characteristics of natural calf heads, very little attack, easy tuning, full and warm sound, combined with great tuning stability. On top of this, Heritage heads tune a third lower than regular heads.
While the heritage heads are really durable and can be played at highest volume, they are so sensible due to them not being laminated, and thus even the softest touch brings forth a warm and tonal sound. This is especially great when you play with silent sticks & beaters and need to play all acoustic!

I use the silent sticks to rehearse in our little studio. I love them. If the rest of the band wants to hear what they really sound like with out ear monitors they are a miracle!

My whole church basically made a comment the Sunday I brought them to church. That’s how much of a difference these sticks make. I’m pulling the trigger on the worship series.

Screw everyone who says these don’t work, YOU dont work, these sticks kick ass, and if you don’t think so, change instruments, pansy!
Paul Spears –
Just got a set and have to say after 50 years of drumming and spending a small fortune on hot rod sticks to be able to play quietly with attack and energy these silent sticks are great with a fantastic cymbal response
If you need to play at low volume you need these as an alternative in your stick bag

I never leave feed back but I got these sticks and let me tell u life changing.
Brad Hepfer –
I’ve had the sticks for several months now and really like them. I use to only play when it rained and the wife ( a former drummer and lead singer in an all girl band in the sixties) wasn’t home. No longer an issue with these sticks.

Enjoy playing with your invention especially on those days when Diabetic Arthropothy and Arthritis “creeps up”, Lol.
Thank You So Much! Aloha.
Take Care, Stay Safe
John Walsh –
These are great for rehearsal and much more responsive than some of the other ‘rod’ solutions I have tried. I definitely recommend them to drummers who need to take their volume down without changing their attack.
Janet Moser –
I really love the silent sticks!
Roy Horton –
Got mine quick works out fine.

I’d say try em before knocking them. They have a unique feel and the weight of the stick really can really up your speed. I’ve been using them for a couple months. Certainly not right for every application but if yu try em I think you’ll find a place in your bag to keep a pair.
