 -Stan Leonard, Principal Timpanist, Pittsburgh Symphony (Retired) :

"
Carlisle timpani sticks set a standard of excellence for making music with the timpani. The various models provide a wide spectrum of tone producing capabilities and are meticulously hand crafted. I have used Carlisle sticks since their inception and recommend them highly for the discriminating performer."

 Ed Stephan, Principal Timpanist: Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra:

"
For as long as I've been a timpanist I've used Carlisle timpani sticks.  There's simply no other line of sticks available that offers the variety of tone colors and quality of craftsmanship that Carlisle sticks do.  Knowing the craftsman himself as well as I do, I'm very assured that every stick that leaves the shop is of the highest quality and beauty.  Beautifully hand crafted from top to bottom, Carlisle sticks inspire one to play the timpani."

"
I have been using Carlisle timpani sticks since 1994 and have been extremely satisfied with them. They are well-balanced, fit naturally into the hands, are well voiced, and sound terrific. No matter the style of music, whether it is Mozart, Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Strauss, Mahler, or Stravinsky, Carlisle sticks are the sticks to use, and you won't find better craftsmanship anywhere."

" I am really happy to have discovered Ron Carlisle's timpani sticks. Not only are they a beautifully graded set showing a deeply considered and thoughtful approach to the needs of timpanists, they also display a level of finish and craftsmanship commensurate with their aims, a pleasure to hold and use."
