Meinl Stick & Brush Hybrid Drumsticks - 8A
Long-taper Hickory 8A Sticks with Articulate Barrel Tips
Uniquely shaped barrel tips on slightly elongated long-taper shafts give Meinl’s Hybrid drumsticks superb articulation and a quick, whip-like response. Apart from these features, the Hybrid series is sized (in diameter) according to industry standards, making them an easy transition for the occasional song, set, or gig. These German-engineered American hickory sticks have been manufactured to the tightest tolerances and developed with input from Meinl’s renowned artist roster. The density-tuned hickory construction of Meinl Hybrid sticks give them the strength to hold their shape and the durability to go the distance.
Tuned by weight, matched by tone
As drummers, we expect our sticks to perform the same night after night. German-made Meinl sticks are carefully matched by weight and pitch to create balance in the hand and consistency from pair to pair. Each model is uniquely weighted by wood density to create a uniform response, from the smallest diameters all the way up to the largest.
