DoubleGlaze lacquer finish
Adds a consistent grip-focused feel intended for dry hands.

Independent shopping perspective
American Classic DoubleGlaze X5B sticks combine hickory, wood acorn tips, and a DoubleGlaze lacquer finish. The finish is made to give dry-handed drummers a secure, comfortable hold with a consistent classic feel. It is intended to help the sticks stay in hand without an overly sticky surface, leaving room for fluid, versatile playing rather than a tacky grip sensation.
