do to sticks come with it

You get two sticks yes....the price is for a pair.

I play cowbell for Blue Öyster Cult, would these sticks be good for helping me get more cowbell?

The benefit of buying Vic Firth drumsticks are that they are “pitch paired” from the factory which ensures you get an even pitch across your drums as you articulate stroke patterns. The SD1’s in particular are thinner in circumference and articulate much like a pair of jazz/fusion sticks. They have wooden tips that are smaller and ball-shaped. They are well suited to subtle articulations, back beats, ghost strokes etc. Playing a cowbell chews up your sticks quite quickly and hickory will splinter on you. I would recommend a denser, sturdier oak such as ProMark in a 2B weight. These will give you more “cowbell” and last longer against the abuse. Hope that helps.

Are they longer than the SD2 Boleros?

YES: SD1 16.375", SD2 BOLERO 15.75"

Are these as thick as the Aaron Spears Signatures or close to 5A's

I don't know about Aaron Spears Signatures, but these are significantly thicker than 5As. They're an great stick for concert and rudimental playing, and I highly recommend that you have at least one pair in your collection.
