King DavidKing David Accordion Accessory (14WPCK)

As a music teacher I just needed a cheap baton that I could leave at school. While this is not a perfectly balanced baton, I am strong enough to deal with that for the length of a rehearsal. My arm does not get extra tired because I am not holding a balanced baton, and guess what, my band students do not care what I'm waving up front anyway so you should just buy this baton.

Not bad! I’ve played around with these and decided finally to buy one. The shaft is very thick, almost comically so. The handle isn’t really rotund enough to hold between the fingers so you’d want a more traditional grip. The balance point is far ahead of the fulcrum which I think is pretty consistent with cork handles.

Admit it. You have a bit of the conductor in you and when you hear something that really reaches inside and grabs your sould, you wave around your pen. Hey, go for an economical (i.e., cheap) version of the real thing, and your family will know that yo REALLY ARE crazy! Michael Tilson Thomas probably wouldn't be caught dead with this, but you and I know...hey, it's just a stick!

This is a pretty good product if you don't want to spend the money on a real quality baton. I had to order two because the first one came broken. The second came warped, then I just gave up and super glued it. When in tact, it has a pretty good balance. Though I don't really recommend it.

You get what you pay for. I used this for a beginner conducting class, and it worked perfectly fine. I was very satisfied. By the end of the semester, it was pocked with my cat's bitemarks, and I eventually snapped it in two on accident. It's not your most sturdy baton, but it's perfectly fine for a beginner. Also, very cheap!

This product is reliable and very efficient. I enjoyed conducting with it. Shipping was fast and easy. I highly recommend this product to any conductor in need of a nice, sturdy, and classic baton for any performance. Great service, and will be purchasing in the future. Thank you!

The King David Pear Cork Handle Baton is a very comfortable baton to use. It's inexpensive but very effective. I enjoyed using it and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a low cost conducting baton.

This is horribly balanced. I have to hold the baton almost two inches above the cork if I want a balanced feel. Perhaps instead if cork, there could be a heavier option to even out the weight if the stick? Not impressed.
