Rock n roll and sex are synonymous. It seems natural to mingle the two. Why not have a vibrator cleverly disguised as drumsticks? They are amusing as a novelty item but they are surprisingly strong. And because it is a pair of drumsticks you get two vibrators for the price of one.

The drumsticks are part of the Phil Varone sex toy line. Phil was the drummer from Saigon Kick and Skid Row. He was also on Sex Rehab with Dr Drew. Apparently if you are a celebrity sex addict, you can get your own line of sex toys!

I laughed every time I saw these on the website. My husband was a drummer in his younger days. When we were dating he would often use his fingers to do a drum roll on my back. It felt great and was better than a massage. He still will give me a drum roll massage, but these days I have to ask. When I saw these sticks I wondered if the vibrating sticks would be just as good as his fingers. I just had to find out.

The sticks are surprisingly strong. They may be a novelty, but Cal Ex did not skimp on the power. They are not the strongest I have ever felt, but they still very good. I would rate these a high 3 on the vroom scale. They are more buzzy than rumbly and the tip of the stick provides pinpoint stimulation. The buzzy vibrations hit just the right note for me. Normally I like rumbly, but a buzz at just the right frequency is also nice. These hit that frequency wonderfully.

I am happy to say these do give a nice percussive massage. We have had a lot of fun drumming on each other's back. Even better, these are great on my naughty bits. I like to use them on my clit. They work well for solo play but they also work during intercourse. I especially like to use one of them during doggy style sex. They can also be used vaginally, but I didn't find that very enticing. They are too thin and don't have a curves for G-spot stimulation. I am happy to stick with massages and clit stimulation. They are not recommended for anal as they do not have a flared base.


The sticks are plastic but made to look like wood. They even have the simulated wood grains. They are miniature sticks at 7.5 inches long. The tips are 3 inches around while the thinner shafts are 2.25 inches. They are shaped like a traditional vibrator. The fact that they are drumsticks make them a bit more discreet than regular toys. They might not attract a lot of attention if casually noticed. However, if someone took a closer look they would probably discover they vibrated. I don't leave them lying around.

They run on 2 AAA batteries each. Since it is a pair of drumsticks, you will need 4 batteries. The battery compartment is at the bottom of the sticks. It is a simple screw on dial. The on/off is also a dial at the very end of the toy.

To clean simply wash with soap and water, a toy cleaner, or a 10% bleach solution. They are easy to clean since they do not have any bumps or ridges. I didn't need lube with these. If desired any type of lube is compatible with the plastic.
