Composer and session drummer Kaz Rodriguez (Josh Groban, Chris Coleman) needed a stick that could provide the power, finesse, and dynamic range he sought for stage and studio work. The Zildjian Artist Series Kaz Rodriguez signature drumsticks answer the call. Their 16.75" length allows players to pull back for added reach and power — great for maximizing output and reaching far-out cymbals — or to choke up for greater control. What's more, Kaz’s unique reduced teardrop wood tip design yields pinpoint precision on cymbals, while elongated shoulders create plenty of room for washing and crashing. As with the rest of the Artist Series, Zildjian Kaz Rodriguez sticks are made from select hickory for durability and power. Looking for creative inspiration?
