Great gift for any drummerGot these for my grandson as a stocking stuffer. He is a drummer in his school band so seemed like a cute little gift to add to the Christmas spirit. He loved them. Thought they were super cool.Exactly as expected!My son loved these. Glad I didn't know about these when he was in high school...probably would have caused some problems, lol!(He also sketches, and said the lead is good too, so more than just a "gag" gift in his case)Great desk toy to keep me occupied on long conference callsI got these pencils for my son's 10th birthday. He is a drummer, and really got a kick out of them. Quality is great! They write nice and clean, and are very sturdy. Will definitely order again. For the parents out there.... think about making these "at home" pencils. They were taken away in school because my son couldn't resist showing off his drumming skills in class. They are now used for doing homework at home only.The friend I gifted this to loved it, and has it as a show piece in their home office.My son loves these!!! I was concerned that they’d possibly break, but he’s had them nearly two months.Fun gift for my teenage son & his drumming teacher.Shame that one stick/ pencil has the branding name on, as we felt that this would/ could be seen as offensive if they were used in school. We have kept them for home use only, so as not to risk any problems for my son.Thought it best to mention it so that parents are aware.Good quality wood, look realistic.I purchased this as a little gift for my son who has recently got into the drums. This was just a little gift, but excellent priced. They don't have an eraser as most pencils do and in that sense are a little impractical, The pencil itself is good quality and it comes well presented as shown. Great little gift and ideal for a little drum or music fan. Would be excellent if it came with like a drum shaped or cymbal shaped eraser.I’ve annoyed everyone within a 10 metre zone as I play on anything with these.Fun novelty item great value for money and was comfy to write withDisappointed by quality, very rough finish. Wording on pencil not appropriate for young child.
