Overview
Pro-Mark 7A drumsticks are thin, light size sticks well-suited to jazz or acoustic music. The optional nylon tip brings out response from the cymbals.These sticks are made of American hickory, the most preferred hickory for drumsticks (it comes from the Southeastern United States). It is considered to be a "hardwood" even though it is not as dense or heavy as oak. This does not make hickory better or worse than oak -- it's just different. That difference becomes a personal preference for the drummer.All Pro-Mark sticks and accessories are guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship, including warpage. Their nylon tips are guaranteed not to crack, chip, break or fall off the stick.
