The Nexus E4 is a full senior-capable stick with a recognizable brand and wide flex range, but it's noticeably heavier and more expensive than the Blackout Prototype. The HSM Blackout is way more affordable for Canadian buyers, much lighter, and offers a much wider curve selection for junior players specifically.
