Find drum sticks for practice, performance and music education, with popular sizes including 5A, 5B and 7A alongside specialist sticks for marching, timbales and tamborim. Choose from wooden and nylon tips, maple and hickory construction, bulk packs and specialist options.

Drum sticks for different playing styles

Our range includes standard drum sticks in popular sizes for players at different stages. 5A drum sticks offer a versatile all-round option, while 5B drum sticks provide a larger profile for more powerful playing. For lighter playing and a faster response, 7A drum sticks offer a thinner alternative.

Tip material also affects the playing response. Wooden tips provide a traditional feel and natural sound, while nylon tips offer a brighter, more defined response, particularly on cymbals. The collection includes both options across several sizes.

Hickory and maple drum sticks

The collection includes drum sticks made from both hickory and maple. Hickory is a popular choice for its combination of durability and shock absorption, while maple provides a lighter feel with a responsive playing character. For schools and group playing, the Percussion Plus maple drum stick brick contains 12 pairs, providing a practical bulk option when several players need their own sticks.

Specialist percussion sticks

Alongside conventional drum sticks, the collection includes sticks designed for specific percussion instruments and playing styles. Liverpool nylon tamborim sticks are available with different tip configurations, while the Liverpool wooden and synthetic timbale sticks provide options for timbale players.

Marching percussion is also covered with options such as the Vic Firth Corpsmaster Ralph Hardimon snare drumstick and Vic Firth Corpsmaster multi-tenor nylon tip drumsticks. For alternative textures and sounds, the collection also includes Promark medium broomsticks.

Vic Firth drum sticks

Vic Firth provides several options within the collection, including Nova drum sticks, American Classic drum sticks and Corpsmaster models designed for marching percussion. The American Classic value pack contains four pairs, making it a useful option for regular players, practice rooms and education settings.
