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
Wood Funk finish
Natural, uncoated wood. Grippier than a lacquered stick when hands are dry, slicker once you sweat.
Detail 03
Under seven dollars
Cheap enough to treat as consumable. Buy several pairs rather than nursing one along.
Detail 04
Sold as a pair
One pair per purchase, not a bulk box. Order multiples if you break sticks regularly.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Are these good for a beginner?
Yes. Hickory is the standard wood and the price is low, so early breakage and dents cost little. Move to a specific size once you know your preference.
02How many sticks do I get?
One pair, two sticks.
03Will these work on an electronic kit?
Yes. Wood sticks are fine on mesh and rubber pads. Play lighter than you would on an acoustic kit to spare the pad surfaces.
04Hickory or maple?
Hickory is denser and takes more abuse, which is why most drummers use it. Maple is lighter and faster but wears out sooner.
