All sticks are made from hickory wood, the preferred material for its strength and natural rebound.

Product names note grip options such as ActiveGrip, Clear coating, and Limited editions, as well as size codes like 5A, 5B, 7A and XL. Some sticks feature wood tips while others have nylon tips for softer cymbal play.

Choose sticks based on the music style you play: lighter 5A sticks suit jazz, while heavier 7A or XL sticks work well for rock. A comfortable grip and balanced tip will help control dynamics and reduce fatigue.

Questions

What does the size code indicate?

The code (5A, 5B, 7A, etc.) describes the stick’s thickness and weight, affecting balance and sound.

Should I pick wood or nylon tips?

Wood tips give a crisp attack on drums; nylon tips are gentler on cymbals and produce a warmer tone.

How important is grip type?

Grip coatings like ActiveGrip improve handling and reduce slippage during fast playing.

Are XL sticks only for heavy music?

XL sticks are longer and heavier, which many drummers prefer for louder, rock-oriented styles.
