The length and taper are the only changes to this model which was originally inspired by some vintage Charlie Wilcoxon models from the early 1950’s. Ultra select hickory, precision matched, pitched and weighed. A great stick for all loud playing such as Shostakovitch symphonies or where you just want to use a larger snare drum. Even a great choice for Bartok Concerto for Orchestra because of its more legato sound. Effortless to roll with and just heavy enough stay versatile and easy to maneuver.
