Meinl Zack Grooves Signature Wood Tip Drumsticks

Designed in collaboration with Zack Grooves, these signature drumsticks combine heavyweight hickory with a medium-thin 0.550" diameter and 16.5" length, creating a perfectly balanced instrument. The long taper counteracts the weight, delivering a fast stick that plays delicately in intimate settings yet projects powerfully during high-energy performances. An oval tip provides versatile cymbal response and tonal control, making these sticks adaptable to any playing situation. Built to withstand demanding gigs while maintaining the sensitivity needed for nuanced playing.

"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 really sweet and sensitive on the cymbals. All around, it's my favourite stick of all time."
