    Perfect weight and length for me. Taper is a little thin. But this is my new stick from now on. I’ve spent a FEW dollars on sticks lately but I found the ones. If bopworks could make the bird land model specs with the diameter and length of this stick , perfect would be the word.

    good big band stick, but I can't see myself using this on much else. Good for Sing, Sing, Sing :)

    The Classic 40’s Swing Classic brings out the sweetest tones of the ride cymbal. Light, nice wood sound that brings out the wanted frequencies of the cymbal. However, they lack weight. They’re simply too light for my taste. Which is a bummer because this would have been my STICK!

    I have used the standard American Classic 5A sticks for many years, but playing with Bopworks 40's Swing Classic is what feels like I am truly stepping into vintage classic drumming and playing to Benny Goodman as well as Topper Headon's Clash songs.

    Great drumsticks, the sound is well defined for the cymbals and the drums. I thought they balanced well with the drum set and the style of music that we play(1940s Big Band). I have tried various other sticks including models marketed at big band models these sticks are great. They can be soft or loud. Will be trying more products from Bopworks. Highly recommend to give them a try.

    Long, lean, balanced, and that bead sounds incredible on my handhammered Turkish cymbals. Beatiful sticks from Bopworks--I'm a Bopworks fanboy. Great stuff.

  • May become my new favorite!

    Very nice light stick for jazz including big band, also rock if you're not a heavy hitter. Acorn tip gives great cymbal and bell-of-cymbal sounds. Similar to VF Tommy Igoe model but a touch lighter and better cymbal sounds. Finish is beautiful!

    The 40s Swing Classic model sticks are an instant favorite and my new go-to stick for acoustic jazz and eclectic music styles that require a varied touch-- especially lower-volume situations where I want a really clean, crisp, lighter touch on the cymbals. Since I no longer play heavy/loud music, I don't need big logs anymore anyway. A notable characteristic is the silky finish or varnish, not too slick or slippery, but a very smooth/perfectly sanded surface feel to grab onto without much slippage.

  • Great product & service!

    I was using the Shelly Manne model for playing in low volume settings but since that model was discontinued, I thought I would give the 40's Swing Classic a try. To my surprise, I like them even better than the Shelly's. They are very light like the Shellys, but the extra length gives them a better feel/balance, as well as greater ease getting around the kit. They sound great on cymbals. I will definitely be going back for more. Also, the service at Bopworks is superb!
