The MEINL Anup Sastry Signature drum sticks offer the reach and power of an oversized model in a well-balanced design. At 17" long with a 0.625" diameter, these sticks provide extra length and heft compared to standard 2B sizes, yet the medium taper and light overall weight prevent the sticks from feeling overly bulky or sluggish. An extra coat of thin lacquer increases grip without compromising the sticks' smooth feel. Designed through close collaboration with drummer Anup Sastry, these signature sticks strike an ideal balance between size and weight for players seeking a bigger stick that still feels nimble and responsive.
