About this product

Maple Drumsticks

Maple is noticeably lighter than hickory at the same dimensions, and it flexes more. In practice that means a stick you can move faster with less effort, and one that puts less energy into the drum for the same motion — which is exactly what a jazz player, a worship team or anybody playing a quiet room wants.

Because it is lighter for its volume, maple also lets you have a fat stick that does not feel heavy. A larger diameter gives a bigger contact area and a fuller sound from a lighter piece of wood, which is a combination hickory cannot offer.

It is softer, so it dents and breaks sooner. We would rather say that plainly than let a school buy maple for a marching program and blame us in October. For a player who is not hitting hard it can outlast expectations; for a heavy hitter working rims it will not. We ask how hard the sticks are being played before recommending it.

Jazz and light players, worship teams, studios, teachers and anyone wanting speed over mass. Send your artwork and quantities for a free mockup and quote on custom maple drumsticks today.

FAQ

Maple Drumsticks: quick answers

What is the minimum order for maple drumsticks?
Minimum order is just 12 — with bulk pricing tiers as quantities grow.
How fast will my order arrive?
Your free mockup lands within 24 hours and the finished order ships in about 2 weeks — express turnaround is available for tight dates.
Will maple last as long as hickory?
No, and we will not suggest otherwise. Maple is softer, so it dents and breaks sooner, particularly against rims. For a light player it can last very well; for a heavy hitter or a marching program it is the wrong wood and we will say so before you order.
Why choose maple at all?
Because it is lighter and more flexible at the same dimensions, so the stick moves faster for less effort and puts less energy into the drum. It also lets you have a fat stick that does not feel heavy, which hickory cannot do.
