Chord Drum Sticks - 7AN - Hickory

The main advantage is their shorter-than-standard length, which offers better control and comfort for students or players who prefer a shorter reach.

They are made from hickory wood with nylon tips.

The '7A' typically refers to a size category often associated with smaller, lighter sticks, and the 'N' often indicates a nylon tip. The specific '7AN' is a common size designation in drum sticks.

They can be suitable for professional drummers who specifically prefer a shorter and lighter stick for certain styles or techniques, but they are primarily marketed towards students and general players.

Wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking them in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals.

A single drum stick weighs approximately 43g.

While hickory is durable, these compact sticks are generally better suited for lighter genres or practice due to their size and potential for breakage under extreme stress compared to larger, heavier sticks.

Ensure you are using the sticks appropriately for their intended size and playing style. Avoid excessive force on hard surfaces or during rim shots. Check for manufacturing defects if breakage occurs quickly.

Nylon tips are designed for durability but can wear faster with aggressive playing on hard surfaces. Consider using a practice pad or a more forgiving cymbal surface for intense practice sessions.

Ensure both sticks in the pair are clean and free from debris. Check if the tips are damaged or worn unevenly. Minor variations in sound can occur due to the natural wood grain.
