Hickory VS Maple Drumsticks

An experiment i did to see what is the difference between hickory and maple drumsticks. Buy HERE......
US; Maple Todd Sucherman : amzn.to/2XbrTIc
Promark hickory Naturals : amzn.to/2T4aUZ5

Maple is an amazing wood for drumsticks, however longevity is very short. But I will admit maple just feels so good to play

[@BrendrumJones]

Yes I agree, it's not my go to but a good experience non the less

[@SuperheroJunior]

@@BrendrumJones I prefer Hickory drumsticks

[@CrazyLG72]

I absolutely love the Maple 531 Jason Bonham sticks. The balance is amazing for a thicker stick and are more durable than some hickory sticks that I've used. I have purchased 3 pair and still on my first pair after 3 practices and 2 gigs. I do enjoy a few other brands also but these are flat out great sticks for being Maple. $10 a pair definitely worth it.

[@BrendrumJones]

Cool I'll give them a try

[@mattdrums5136]

Loved this, very insightful man!

[@BrendrumJones]

Thank from saying so , glad it helped. Chat soon, Brendan

[@michaellerch7945]

Your a great drummer and I hope you make more videos on the xymox pad

[@BrendrumJones]

oh youre so good to say that, im working on a new one but its taking awhile. Thanks for being the for and thanks for watching

[@levig-man4103]

so, that means maple sticks are harder to double stroke ?

[@BrendrumJones]

Great question, no I don't think so, it depends on the technique. But that small variable of weight wouldn't effect the overall potential of achieving the double. Sorry for sounding like a instructional manual 😂😂

I always used hickory in the past until I tried maple! I'm now using Vater 5B sugar maple and will not look back. I agree tho, when they break, they usually break completely in half but the tip usually stays intact!

[@BrendrumJones]

I love the Maple vater 5bs they're very good.

[@zanewood4226]

What are your favorite drumsticks to use

[@BrendrumJones]

Hey, I generally use promark 5b naturals, they have no lacquer on them so I feel they have better grip, I was going to move to the maples but there was non that suited me at the time and the Todd sucherman sticks are not worth the price

[@zanewood4226]

@@BrendrumJones cool! I use Regal Tip 7a, Hickory. I like Regal Tip because it doesnt give you that sticky feel when your done playing.

[@BrendrumJones]

@@zanewood4226 Nice i once bought, 10 pairs of Regal tip 5bs hickory and the company sent maples instead lol, i had to sned them back and they had no hickorys so i had to get a different brand.

[@AMusician11]

My go to drumsticks are the "Pro Round-TXPR5AW" by Promark & 5A by Vic Firth

[@michaellerch7945]

No problem man!

[@user-th9gj4xg8j]

What about shirt kashi oak

[@BrendrumJones]

I used a pair years ago, I like it but found it to hard

[@joshuajuaire8757]

It all depends on what type of stick you like to there are many different drumsticks out there that are good and there are some stick companies that are bad stay away from the bad ones

[@BrendrumJones]

Agreed

Thank you #sniff

[@misfit2022]

Hickory is the Mike Tyson of drum sticks. That’s a hard wood reference. I don’t tend to chip tips my drum sticks tend to break at the shoulder.

[@BrendrumJones]

Good comparison

[@misfit2022]

Thank you Brendrum

[@mattcurran6602]

Chipping definitely matters. Every chip equals less weight.

[@UPdan]

Nylon tip. Hah ! Take that !

[@BrendrumJones]

LOL, yeah , no time for those Nylon tips 🤣🤣🤣

[@harryzuzie2130]

This fun drum

[@BrendrumJones]

yes indeed

[@curtisramsey2766]

I think hickory is more stronger, so I'll get all hickory drumsticks

[@brent3760]

I wish maple lasted longer, but the sound to me is sooooo much better than the hickory.

[@BrendrumJones]

Yeah i like maple too, like you said they just dont last as long not much weight either

[@momentstillmidnight57]

Im here cuz i broke my only pair of 2Bs and i cant get another pair cuz of quarantine 😂😂😁😁😀😀🙂🙂😐😐🙁🙁😖😖😭😭

[@BrendrumJones]
