The lightest of the big three woods. A thick maple stick still feels light, which suits fast, intricate playing and quiet gigs. The trade-off is that it wears out sooner.
Close to a cylinder, with a broad contact area. Cymbals give you thickness ahead of definition, and drums are easy to drive. Common on power-oriented models.
