I use the JB505X sticks from LA Backbeat for this very purpose. They are super delicate, very fast with great rebound and the tip makes any cymbal sound like a fine crystal.

Unfortunately, they are not easy to make and are not available at this time. <br />And thanks, I will check out Tonhino; I simply don't know enough about Brazilian music.Michael Grienernoreply@blogger.com
