Description

Choosing the right drumstick is all about feel. A stick's diameter, length, weight, type of wood, taper, tip and finish all determine the way it feels in your hand. There's a stick for every player and every style of music. To play your best, choose the stick that feels the best. After finding a size that feels good, you can confidently experiement with other models.The diameter of a stick in your hand is the primary element in its feel. Length and weight are also important. Shorter and lighter sticks produce a more delicate sound and may require more effort to play louder. Longer and heavier sticks produce greater intensity and allow you to play louder with less effort.Large sticks have a diameter from 15mm. Heavier in weight they are durable and loud. Supporting heavy cymbal use, they are ideal for louder play. Artists who play "L" sticks include Jason Bonham, Jason Bittner, Marco Minneman and Todd Sucherman.Weight, density, texture, resonance and flexibility all vary from one type of wood to another. For the best playing experience Weight, density, texture, resonance and flexibility all vary from one type of wood to another. For the best playing experience possible, choose sticks made from wood that feels right in your hands and projects the sound you want. Maple is a very light wood allowing for a large diameter without weight; small sticks are ultra light for precision and subtlety.The size of the tip's point of contact with the instrument determines tone and articulation. The differences can be very subtle. Wood tips generally produce a warmer sound, and nylon tips often produce a brighter, more articulate sound and are more durable. Experiment until you find the sound that you like. Acorn tips produce a dark, ringing tone; ideal for acoustic performance.The main effects of a stick's finish are on its grip and feel. Lacquer is the choice of most drummers. Lacquered sticks are smooth to the touch. This comfortable finish helps to reduce chafing and blisters.The SD531 Jason Bonham Autograph model features a relatively short taper and a large modified acorn-shaped wood tip for added power and volume.Houston, Texas-based Pro-Mark was founded in 1957 by Herb Brochstein.
