    The good folks over at Pro-Mark and D'Addario were kind enough to give us a tour of their factory so we could learn exactly what goes into making the perfect drumstick. You'll see the processes for cutting, grading, sorting, drying, grinding, finishing, inspecting, and pitch matching (yeah... There are a lot of steps).
    From tree trunk to drumstick, all the steps in between can be found right here.
    Dig this video? Drumeo On The Road is a brand new segment we started doing over in the Drumeo members area:

    • @BenOBrienSmith
      @BenOBrienSmith 6 років тому +1

      It's actually a pretty clear requirement to disclose that information for paid videos. It's entirely possible (and quite likely) that this was not a paid agreement but rather part of a general partnership.

    The drum solo excerpts that you play at 0:17-0:38 and at 4:47-6:21 , isn't that Todd Sucherman's drum solo he played in the Drumeo video? If so, it is well picked because he plays Pro-mark sticks (SD330W), and he is an amazing drummer.
