My first post, so go easy on me ...
I always used to wonder why manufacturers have SO many different stick types to choose from (taper, length, wood-type, tips, etc.). But now, after 30 years playing, I think I actually have a stick design that would be perfect for ME (for most playing situations I do).
Can anyone point me to a stick that would be as close to this as possible? (until a stick company approaches me to make my own signature model. Yeah, right
Length: 15.5"
Wood: Hickory
Thickness: .550
Taper: SHORT as possible
Tip: Not as picky about this
Basically this is a Vic Firth 7A (which I play now), but I REALLY want a short, short, taper (the VF 7A is med or long taper) so the balance is moved toward the tip more)
Thanks!
