So what’s your prefered stick size?

I am a big fan of the Promark 7a.

anyone else?

I like the 330 Todd Sucherman…a lot bigger than a 7a.

It’s all about the Benny Greb sig. model! Benny’s the shiz!

747 rock. hickory wood tip. the only stick i’ve used for 7 years

747 4 me as well!

I’be been using the 5B Japanees White oak for 3 years, and I switch to SD4 Hickory when i play jazz.

747BW!

7AN (Shira Kashi Oak), 5BN (Shira Kashi Oak), and 747N (Hickory)

I absolutely Love the 735W. Steve Ferrone model. I’ve been using them for 10 years or so I think. I will try other sticks but always come back. Perfect balance. Great feel. Awesome.

I dig the 747B Oak Nylon Tip. They hold up to the beating I give them and they are really responsive.

747BN, I originally discovered the 747 and found the extra length really made the difference for me.  Previously was using the 5B but they never felt ‘just right’.  In the last two years or so I’ve been using the 747BN and the extra weight just makes everything else, they’re a bit longer again, and they just feel very comfortable to me.

They’re not so bulky that you can’t play gently with them either.

5A nylon tipped and 747 wood tip in hickory.

I’ve tried sooooo many different brands recently, and none of them have felt half as comfortable or durable as the promarks. Dunno why.

727. I am a huge fan of the Vic Firth Steve Jordan Signatures, because I like really long and thin sticks, but the hickory doesnt stand up to my playing worth crap. The 727 is the closest stick I have found to the feel of the Steve Jordans, but the bead actually stays intact, and the sticks dont break as easily.

im at a crossroads. cant find a good stick. right now im stuck b/w a 5b natural or regular idk

[ I use 5A and 5B nylon/wood tips depending on the type of music I’m playing. I’m looking to try the 510 Thomas Pridgen which appaears to be a wood tip 5BX—wider taper and slightly longer than the 5B.

Oak 747 nylon tip for me. I’ve been using this for years. Still lovin’ it.
