SERIES

The Classic Series features hickory shafts that are hand-turned for perfect balance and great feel. Every shaft is created by hand by master-craftsman Glenn F. Smith, and each pair is sewn by hand with the highest quality materials.

Each stick measures 14.5” long (37cm) and has a slight taper from the handle to the head of the mallet.

A Classic sound for all the music you play – made by JGpercussion.
