Drummers who play this stick 1
Drummers the maker itself lists as playing this model. Each name links to their entry in the drummer directory.
Nearly all the birch here is laminated birch: thin plies glued together. It's very heavy and very strong, which is why it turns up in loud marching and concert models.
TeardropTip shape
Halfway between a ball and a flat face. The tone shifts with your angle of attack, and on cymbals it balances definition against body. A genuine all-rounder.
ConcertUse
