These sites have been reporting about Adoro Silent Sticks:
...and this is what our customers say...
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

Greg Mrakich These sticks are great. Feel great. Low volume but still you get tone from drums and cymbals. I’m a hack, but at least not a loud hack

Rick Vandeven I tried Silent Sticks out this weekend with my band. I usually play my e-drums when we rehearse, but we have started booking gigs again, and have a show at a small bar and grill in 3 weeks. It’s too small IMO for my acoustic drums, but I hate dragging my electrics to a gig. Anyhow, ordered Silent Sticks, set my Luddies up, and we had a grand rehearsal in my garage! I am ordering another pair today!

Allan Langvee Awesome product!!! Added bonus… broke my wrist (right cymbal hand) and can continue to practice with a cast! Vibration level is also less with these sticks!!! Totally recommend them!
* * *
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.

Corbin Gurley Received mine in a timely manner even with the postal service being so backed up with volume. Love the sticks so far, would love for them to have a little more rebound, but with the way they’re designed I don’t see that being very alterable. Great product! May have to check out the silent beater soon 🤔

Cyrus Cariaga 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 Arnett The silent sticks are great! Durable, grip nicely, and much more responsive on the snare and toms than dowel sticks, which I’ve used for years. Much brighter sound on the cymbals as well! A good investment!
* * *
Roy Horton Got mine quick works out fine.
* * *
Matt Drummer Just bought and used them today. Excellent product. If you are just an uncontrolled basher, then you will not be happy, but if you play with some finesse then I highly recommend them.
* * *
Jerry Umthun They are great. Used at Church praise band but we used those wrapped up tiny dowels where you only play solid notes. But with Adoro we can do rolls again in 8th and 16th note count. Love it.

Rob Crafts I am so pleased with these sticks. Ordered two pair and am very satisfied.
* * *
Jason Emery 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.
* * *
Sean Ibanez I actually really like these. Gave em a shot when they came up in my feed. Figured a few bucks wasn’t a big deal if I didn’t like them. They’re a little more flexible than i was expecting, but it’s easy to adjust to. They’re slim and light, i think a bit thinner than my 7a sticks. It lets me practice rudiments after my 5y/o goes to bed. It’s going to make a big difference for me.

Glenn Etter Used mine for the first time last night and was very impressed, as was the rest of the band! Wondering how long they will last and how the plastic shaft will handle cymbal rash, but so far so good…
* * *
Chris Sheppard I LOVE THE SILENT STICKS!! Just played my first full gig with them at a local Craft Brewery and we had a blast AND I played fully “free”! Decided to buy another pair as a back up.
* * *
Rafael Franco This silent beater is the best out there. It ACTUALLY reduces the noise significantly, opposed to the Kat and others which barely do anything
* * *
Marco Noto Mine were shipped very quickly. The thin version is a little too small for my hands but workable. May try the larger size.
* * *
Maryanne ZanFagna I love these sticks. Just got mine a few days ago. They’re awesomeeee
* * *
Jared Ostrom 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!
* * *
Greg Webster I bought two pair… Love them. They are not for heavy hitters.
* * *
Tony Kay I have a pair and they really do cut the volume. They are very light in weight compared to regular sticks. They have a new version for e-drums which are a little more like a regular stick in weight. I use them for practice and when playing gigs in smaller venues.
* * *
Justin Bowe I’ve tried many implements to play quieter but with good tone; I don’t like rods, I like some things about rutes, and I liked the ProMark broomsticks but these SilentSticks are the best option I’ve tried in years. They feel great, play great, and work great for playing in a small church worship area. I did break the tip off one, but it happens to real sticks too so it’s fine. They deliver a tiny bit more attack than tone, but I can live with it. Highly recommend!

Scott Keiser I’m a worship pastor, and our Adoro worship drums and silent sticks arrived here in the U.S. 3 days after ordering, even shipping from Germany! 3 days!! That’s crazy.
Our sanctuary has ridiculous acoustics. It’s like playing in a cave. If you clap, it lingers for 4 seconds. Enter Adoro drums and sticks. We got it ready and mic’d up with no cage a couple Sundays ago, and I was nervous. The older members of the congregation would’ve bombarded me with emails the next day if it was too much (I know what you’re thinking, but that’s another convo for another day). But that Sunday went great! The drums blended well and were easy to regulate from the booth. I received several compliments on them even. They do what they are designed to do. Even in a “cave” sanctuary. Very impressed with this customer-minded company and the CEO.

Nechemia Soibelman I never leave feed back but I got these sticks and let me tell u life changing.
* * *
Bob Forman These are way quieter than wood sticks ,but sharper and louder than brushes! The perfect medium,and won’t annoy other musicians .lol. Not sure how durable they will hold up,just started playing ,time will tell !!
* * *
Richard A. Langley 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!
* * *
Leeroy Heckart 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.
* * *
Ken Osterhoudt I don’t get all the complaining. They serve a purpose. If I wanna play at 11pm my neighbors hear nothing with these. The family doesn’t complain when they are trying to watch tv. If I just wanna mess around, not hearing protection these are fine. Sure I prefer real sticks but my practice time can now double with these. They serve a purpose. Took a day to get used to them. Give them a chance. I ordered them, the were here in a week.
* * *
David Fuchser Just got a pair of the blue edrum version for my Roland kit, since I live in an apartment. It’s not silent of course, but it takes a considerable edge away compared to my regular sticks. Also have tennis ball risers underneath my bass and pedals (the main offenders!) Would recommend these sticks to any edrum player!
