Detail 01
Nylon tip
Brighter, more focused cymbal attack than wood. Nylon does not chip like wood, but the tip can crack off eventually.

PromarkJapanese White Oak Drum Sticks 6-Pair Nylon 747
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Six pairs of Japanese white oak 747 sticks with nylon tips. A bulk buy for players who already know the 747 shape.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Gigging drummers stocking up on a stick they already use
- Loud stages where bright cymbal definition needs to cut
- Rehearsal rooms and schools going through sticks fast
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers who have not tried a 747 yet
- Players wanting warm, dark wood-tip cymbal tone
- Anyone who prefers hickory's softer, more forgiving feel
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Japanese white oak
Denser than hickory. Holds up longer against rims and hardware, but transmits more shock to your hands.
Detail 03
747 model
A specific length, diameter and taper. If you like it, this pack keeps the exact feel consistent across six pairs.
Detail 04
6-pair pack
Around twenty dollars a pair, with five spares behind the pair in your hands. Sized for regular players, not occasional ones.
Detail 05
Oak plus nylon
The hardest combination here. Loudest and most durable, and the least forgiving on cymbal edges.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Sticks only. No bag or stick holder in the pack.
- 02Try one pair of 747 before committing to six
- 03Nylon tips can separate from the stick; keep a spare pair accessible
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between this and the 747BN?
Both are Japanese white oak 747 sticks with nylon tips. They are separate model designations, so match the exact code if you are replacing a stick you already play.
02Do nylon tips damage cymbals?
Nylon is harder than wood and concentrates the strike on a smaller area. Normal playing is fine; heavy hitting on thin cymbals wears them faster than wood tips would.
03Is oak heavier than hickory?
Yes. At the same dimensions oak is denser, so the stick feels heavier and stiffer in the hand and lasts longer against rim shots.
04Are all six pairs identical?
They are the same model and dimensions. Each pair is matched as a pair; small weight variation between pairs is normal with wood.
