The Korena take

Six pairs of Japanese white oak 747BN sticks with nylon tips. A bulk restock for drummers already playing this exact model.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a stick you already play, six pairs at a time
  • Loud rock and live work needing a bright cymbal attack
  • Heavy hitters who go through hickory sticks quickly

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • First-time buyers who have not settled on a stick
  • Jazz and brush players wanting a light, warm response
  • Drummers sensitive to hand shock from stiff sticks

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.

Promark Japanese White Oak Drum Sticks 6-Pair Nylon 747BN construction detail

Detail 01

747BN model code

The suffix marks a specific variant. Order by the full code so you get the same stick you had, not just any 747.

Detail 02

Nylon tip

Brighter and more cutting on cymbals and hi-hat than wood. Will not chip, but can crack off the shoulder over time.

Detail 03

Japanese white oak

Denser and stiffer than hickory. Longer life on rims and hardware at the cost of more vibration into your hands.

Detail 04

6-pair pack

About twenty dollars a pair. Worth it only if this is your regular stick, since you are buying twelve of them.

Detail 05

Oak with nylon tip

The most durable and loudest pairing here. It rewards a hard player and punishes a light one.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Sticks only. No bag, sleeve, or holder included.
  2. 02Check your old stick's full model code before ordering six pairs
  3. 03Oak's stiffness is noticeable over long sets; try a pair first

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01How is 747BN different from the plain 747?

They are separate model designations of the same Japanese white oak nylon-tip line. Match the exact code if you are replacing sticks you already play.

02Will nylon tips wear out my cymbals?

Nylon is harder than wood and hits a smaller area. Normal playing is fine, but consistent heavy striking on thin cymbals wears them faster than wood tips.

03Should I buy oak or hickory?

Oak if you break sticks often and want volume and durability. Hickory if you want a lighter feel and less shock through your hands.

04Is six pairs too many to start with?

If you have not played this model, buy a single pair first. Sticks are personal and the code matters more than the brand.
