AJ4 Drumsticks

American Jazz®

A thin stick that still produces great cymbal sound. Long taper provides fantastic rebound.

Developed for the player who is looking for ultimate rebound on the drums and cymbals, the American Jazz® line is comprised of six models which feature a long taper in the shaft for that great feel! The neck specifications are sizable enough to create dark cymbal sounds, and the small tear drop tip keeps everything in focus.
