Pro Mark SD531W Jason Bonham

This is what I’ve always wanted - a thick, long stick in maple. It is a work of art. Very nicely balanced and I love the thought of Bonham growing up using his father’s sticks and possibly using those as his inspiration for this model. But as with anything made of this wood it simply can’t take any serious play without showing serious signs of wear and tear. I use a mainly electric hybrid kit (Zildjian L80 cymbals and a bit of mounted percussion) but even so I doubt these are going to last long. Will be fun while it lasts though.
