Amazing sticks, they have brought my volume down considerably with a clean ride cymbal sound. Really nice......Benjamin Mayer

Birdland sticks
Great light, fast sticks for low volume playing. Nice sound, quiter than those wrapped dowels and much nicer action. Will be getting more.

This is an unusual pair of sticks to find these days and I couldn't be happier with them. The select hickory makes a big difference I do believe.

I love these sticks.
I’d seen Bopworks ads in a couple different drum magazines, and I’d been wanting to try something new, so I ordered 4 pair of Birdlands and one pair of 40s Swing Classics. They shipped and arrived quicker than I expected and they were packaged nicely. The Birdland is short, thin, and light. It took me a couple days to get used to them, but they quickly became my favorite stick that I’ve used in 23 years of drumming. On a fairly snugly tuned drum they really shine, and if you play with the butt-end on the snare you’ll have ample volume for almost any situation. If you chop sticks up on your cymbals I wouldn’t use these, but if you want fast, light and musical sticks I would certainly give these a try.

Birdland Sticks
Fabulous, as always. If you love pure cymbal sounds, you will love these sticks! They are well built and balanced.

Birdland Model
My Birdlands arrived just in time for rehearsal. I love them. I've been a long-time Regal Tip 7AN guy. But their wood tip version doesn't have the same taper as the nylon. My new Bopworks are perfect. Super responsive. Fun to play. I'm never going back.

Birdland
I have played with these sticks for several years. They feel beautiful in my hands. The weight and balance are superb. They help me extract beautiful tones from my drums and cymbals, and they are exceptionally durable!

Great cymbal sound and feel
I switched to playing only Bopworks a few years ago and quickly landed on the Birdland as my model of choice. I use them for combo jazz and, perhaps surprisingly, for big band. The tips sound great on my cymbals, especially when I'm going for the slightly trashy old sound on my ride. The lighter weight compared to my old sticks gives me a lot more room to play - I can hit really hard without overpowering either my quartet or big band.
