The Art Blakey stick
One of hard Bop's greatest exponents, master of the
smokin' press roll of death. Decades of the leading the great
Jazz Messenger bands have earned him his place in history.
The Art Blakey model has been reproduced exactly
from his 60's stick - the longer taper and triangle tip
make this stick ideal for almost any application.
Bopworks sticks are pitched paired and weighed in grams.
This ensures proper matching in every pair you buy.

Newguy likes 'em
At 55 yrs. old I've been playing for only a year. Can't tell you why I like them so much except to say they feel great overall. I like the largest triangle tip I've seen, the 16" length and the thin/med thin diameter with a graceful taper.
There's enough weight to play louder stuff and it's easy to choke up a little if you want to ease up a bit.
I have maybe 25 differen't pairs of sticks including 3 other Bopworks models but these are my favorites to date. Great service too! -
Finally
After a long wait, the promised Blakey sticks have arrived.
They feel absolutely great-good balance and nice taper that lets the cymabl tone stand out.
I personally wouldn't use these on a super quiet gig, but for anything else, they'd work great. -
Art Blakey's crisp sound!
These are balanced with some more weight to the tip, due to its big size. This provides a crispier attack, but doesn't sacrifice any rebound because of its long neck. They feel very nice at hand!
