Innovative Percussion designed the LA Session LAX-1 drum stick to meet the demands of their players on the West Coast—the go-to session pros who can play any genre, any day. This model features a 5AB size diameter which is the sweet spot for those looking for something larger than a 5A and smaller than a 5B. The LAX-1 is built to handle all sorts of musical styles from rock to jazz, blues to pop. With its elongated teardrop bead, the LA Session stick provides a large contact area creating a darker and fuller sound across the entire kit.
