Meinl Stick & Brush Drumsticks, Hybrid 5A American Hickory with Acorn/Barrel Shape Wood Tip MADE IN GERMANY (SB106)

Hybrid 5A — Meinl Hybrid drumsticks deliver a dark and smooth articulation on cymbals with a feel that can cross genres for players with diverse styles — this size 5A stick has a diameter of 0.565" Hybrid tip — the unique hybrid wood tip starts as an acorn shape, which is trimmed down to the classic barrel size to balance articulation with warmth and texture Additional reach — measuring 16.25" long, this stick gives you a little extra reach and power when going for further out surfaces on your kit without throwing off the balance to keep your grip and touch relaxed Two step taper — the taper features two distinct steps, a long and gradual taper going down the shoulder of the stick that leads up to a short and fast taper located closer to the tip — this gives you a slight forward-heavy feel while maintaining balance Pre-sorted United States hickory — we source premium hickory from the United States for its durability and outstanding tone, then we pre-sort raw wooden dowels into specific models based on weight & density to ensure your go-to pair always feels the same
