Maple wood provides a lightweight alternative to hickory. Maple drum sticks produce dark tones on your instruments and offer a softer feel. Supplement your favorite stick with a maple version to give your playing a new, yet very familiar, treatment.

Zildjian's Maple DIP drum sticks are treated with a double coating of their exclusive DIP grip. This provides a desirable backweighting to the stick that is particularly noticeable in the lightweight maple models. If you're looking for a drum stick that gives you the maximum grip to relax your hands and still be light enough to fly, Maple DIPs are for you.
