Zildjian Super 7A Maple Green DIP Drumsticks
The Zildjian Super 7A Maple DIP are 16" maple drumsticks with a double coat of green DIP. Maple makes them lighter, and the coating shifts their weight toward the back: they swing with almost no effort.
What sets it apart
- Maple, lighter than hickory
- Double coat of green DIP
- 16", 0.525"
- Small round wood bead
Light up front, weighted at the back
Zildjian describes maple as a lighter alternative to hickory that produces darker tones and a softer feel. The double coat of DIP on the grip area moves the weight toward the back: an effect the company says is most noticeable on its maple models. The DIP also offers maximum grip, so your hands can stay relaxed.
