Meinl Stick & Brush Drumsticks, Siros Vaziri Signature Half Brick – Hickory Wood Drum Sticks with Hybrid Tip – Live, Practice, Drum Kits, Percussion – MADE IN GERMANY

The Siros Vaziri Signature Drumstick delivers a front-heavy feel with a smooth mix of power, control, and articulation—perfect for dynamic, high-output playing. Made in Germany from select U.S. hickory, this model features extra length and a short taper for added force with minimal effort. The front-weighted balance gives you punch without overplaying, while the hybrid tip softens cymbal response and adds clarity to ghost notes and articulation. Each dowel is weighed and sorted before shaping to ensure a narrow weight and density range, so your sticks always feel the same—pair after pair. Every pair is also weight and pitch matched. “I wanted to develop a stick that lets me play loud with minimal effort, while also keeping a soft and articulate cymbal sound. The extra length and short taper give it a front-heavy feel—like a long hammer—so you barely have to swing and still get a ton of force. The hybrid tip balances that out with finesse and clarity. Fast or slow, loud or quiet—this stick almost plays itself. LOVE IT!” — Siros Vaziri
