Saksalainen Carbostick ECCTLP kapula on hiilikuidusta valmistettu ja erittäin luja ja paljon (n. 10 kertaa puuhun verrattuna) SOITTOA kestävä (ei kuitenkaan rautakanki!)  ja se ei rispaannu/nukkaannu lainkaan kuten puinen. Siitä syystä se onkin pitemmän päälle edullisin vaihtoehto. Puukapulan painotus, pomppaaminen kalvosta takaisin, painotus kädessä ym. soittokäyttäytyminen on laboratoriossa tutkittu erittäin tarkasti ja siirretty kaikilta ominaisuuksiltaan Carbostick kapuloihin, vain puukapulan heikkoudet on poistettu, eikä tikut enää lentele kun soitat.

Koodin merkitykset:EC =koko/tyyppi, CTL= Classic Tip Large, eli pään muoto, P=Premium weighted, eli soittotuntuma kuten tammikapulalla. Mitat: 14,4x412,6mm.

  The Carbostick European Classic Classic Tip Large Model is a well known Rock ?N Roll drumstick that possesses a unique punch as well as a full striking effect, but with a larger tip. The EC CTL has a length of 413 mm and is longer than any Carbostick 5B Model but has a diameter greater than a 5A Model and less than a 5B Model drumstick. The result is a Rock ?N Roll weapon that should be in the arsenal of any serious Pop and Rock drummer! By design, the EC CTL has more front weight with a longer shaft to produce maximum striking effect that must be experienced and heard to fully appreciate.

The Carbostick EC CTL Model drumstick comes in SIX (6)-different variations! The Carbostick EC CTL is offered in an EC CTL Light weight drumstick which mirrors the feel of maple wood. The EC CTL Medium weighted stick mirrors the feel of a hickory wood stick. The EC CTL Premium weighted stick mirrors the heavier/more dense feel of Oak wood. In addition to the three different tip sizes and three different weights within the EC CTL spectrum, Carbostick offers each of these three EC CTL variations in the Copper Ink-Rear/Light Balance Point Conformation or the Silver Ink-Front/Heavy Balance Point Conformation. Never before have there been so many choices within one drum stick size and this level of manufacturing control is only available with our patented processes and utilization of carbon fiber. Carbon fiber out performs wood in Rebound, Control, Balance, Vibration, Speed, Elasticity and Durability. Carbostick manufactures every possible EC CTL variation available for the most discriminating of drummers.
