Standard and Long lengths are available across the range, plus nylon tip options in 7A, 5A, 5B and 2B.

About Promark Drumsticks

Promark was founded in the USA in 1957 and has grown into one of the world's most respected drumstick manufacturers, trusted by professional drummers across every genre from jazz and orchestral music to rock and metal. Now part of the D'Addario family of brands, Promark combines decades of traditional craftsmanship with innovative technologies that address the real challenges drummers face in performance.

FireGrain is one of Promark's most significant innovations — a heat treatment process that burns the surface of the hickory wood, creating a micro-textured finish that improves grip and significantly increases the durability of the stick. The heat treatment also slightly hardens the wood, giving FireGrain sticks a marginally brighter, more defined attack compared to standard finished sticks. For drummers who go through sticks quickly or who play in sweaty live environments, FireGrain offers a meaningful performance advantage.

ActiveGrip takes a different approach to the grip problem — a moisture-activated coating that becomes tackier as the drummer's hands sweat. Rather than fighting against perspiration, ActiveGrip uses it, providing a more secure grip precisely when it's needed most. This makes ActiveGrip sticks particularly popular with drummers who play long, energetic sets where hand fatigue and grip loss are genuine concerns.

The choice of wood species has a significant impact on stick feel and sound. Hickory is the most popular choice for its combination of strength, flexibility and shock absorption — it's forgiving on the hands and durable under heavy playing. Shira Kashi Oak is denser and heavier, delivering more power and a cutting attack that suits heavy rock and metal playing. Maple is lighter and faster, making it the preferred choice for jazz, brushwork and lighter playing styles.

Wood tip drumsticks produce a warmer, more natural sound on cymbals, with a slightly softer attack. Nylon tip sticks produce a brighter, more defined sound with a clearer, more consistent attack — particularly noticeable on ride cymbals. Nylon tips are also more durable than wood tips, as they don't chip or wear in the same way. The choice is largely a matter of personal preference and the sound you want from your cymbals.
