Zildjian Taylor Hawkins Artist Series Hickory Drumsticks, Round Tip
The Zildjian Taylor Hawkins Artist Series is the signature stick of the Foo Fighters' drummer. It's close to a 5B with a larger shaft, powered up front: a shorter taper adds throw and weight, and its big round tip gives a bold, rock-ready sound.
What sets it apart
- 5B type, powered up front
- Short taper, throw and weight
- Large round tip, rock sound
Shorter, heavier up front
At 15.87", Taylor Hawkins' stick is a little shorter than a 16" 5B. Instead, Zildjian concentrates mass toward the front, with a short taper, and thickens the diameter so the stick projects easily. The result packs unexpected punch, while staying balanced enough to play any style.
