El Estepario Siberiano and Meinl have created a signature stick together that features many classic elements but is specifically built to match his wide range of drumming capabilities from effortless grooves to ‘must-see-to-believe’ mechanics. The result is a stick that perfectly blends versatility with speed and agility. Using select US hickory, this stick begins with a medium-thin diameter of 0.555” for a standard grip that is just under a 5A and features an acorn tip for quintessential cymbal definition. To create a more modern feel, each dowel is cut to a unique length of 16.375”, and when combined with the medium taper and medium weight, these sticks come alive around the kit and respond in any situation. 

Zack Grooves came to Meinl Stick & Brush with a goal to find a drumstick that would feel like an extension of his hands and respond as needed regardless of the situation he found himself in. Together, we have designed a stick that features a unique combination of weight, diameter and length. To start off, we select our heaviest hickory dowels and then mill them down to a medium-thin diameter of 0.550”. The dowels are then cut to 16.5” in length and given a long taper to counter the heavy weight. This produces an overall balanced feel, and the final result is a fast stick that plays light enough for small and intimate rooms but has the weight to project when needed and withstand the punishment of louder gigs too. To top off the flexibility, Zack chose an oval tip for its balanced response and wide variety of tones and attack that you can generate on cymbals, giving him total control over his final sound. 

“I was on a mission to find the perfect drumstick no matter what style of music I was playing. I needed something light enough for a jazz standards gig at a cocktail joint, but also heavy and durable enough to bash on a rock hit. And let me tell you, the folks at Meinl Stick & Brush nailed it!
My drumsticks feel super quick and responsive to play. But with the extra length, there’s enough reach to powerfully blaze around the drum kit without feeling like you’re working too hard.  I always feel like I’m in complete control of what I’m playing, no matter the style or task. Let’s not forget about the oval tip of the stick that sounds really good when you wanna get real sweet and sensitive on the cymbals. All around, it's my favorite stick of all time.”

A modern stick for a modern drummer. Every drummer is searching for the stick to complete their ideal drum setup. Meinl Stick & Brush Luke Holland Signature Drumsticks were the answer for online drumming vlogger, Luke Holland. With a diameter somewhere between a 5A and 5B, and a precisely designed, thicker shoulder, these versatile drumsticks were created to satisfy Holland's need for both speed and power.

Their round ball tips provide world class articulation, especially on cymbals, while a shorter taper length means superb feel, and loud, chunky rimshots. At just over 16", they're long enough to give a strong, pleasing rebound, but allow you to maintain maximum control through even the most complex fills. With over 600,000 followers online Luke Holland is a drummer who can perform under pressure. Now he has a stick to match.

Starting with a 5A diameter and US selected hickory, this unique stick features a total length of 16.5" and a long taper designed for both reach and rebound in a stick made to play fast. The round ball tip produces articulation and clarity on cymbals as well as drums, while the weight and balance supply the sensitivity and feel necessary for a great all-around stick.

"I wanted to develop a stick that lets me play loud with minimal effort, while also keeping a soft and articulate cymbal sound. Meinl Stick & Brush really nailed it - this is without a doubt the best feeling stick I've ever held in my hands.The extra length and short taper give it a front-heavy feel, which lets me hit hard without actually doing much. It's like a long hammer with extra weight at the top - you barely have to swing it and you still get a ton of force from it. The hybrid tip is the PERFECT contrast to that front-heavy feel. It makes the ride, hihat and ghost notes softer and more articulate. Fast or slow, loud or quiet - this stick is just perfectly balanced to give you what you need in any situation. It almost feels like it plays itself, and it can take a beating too. LOVE IT!"

Jay Postones Meinl Signature Drumsticks

Jay Postones and Meinl Stick & Brush built these sticks for speed, control, and power. Jay’s subtle refinements make a big impact, and you’ll feel the difference. The 16.5" length adds extra reach, while the short 2.78" taper keeps precision tight and gives the stick a slightly weighted throw. A standard 0.565” grip ensures easy maneuverability. Jay also chose a round tip to dial-up clarity on all surfaces. Made from premium American hickory in a medium-light weight, they balance effortless movement with a solid, responsive feel.

"Fine-tuned for my specific playing style — the perfect drumstick does exist. We refined details so subtle they’re almost invisible, yet you can absolutely feel the difference when playing. With a slightly longer design, the stick provides extra throw for greater power when needed. It’s a beautifully balanced, versatile, and incredibly playable drumstick that I’m proud to put my name on."
