Zildjian Limited Edition 400th Anniversary Classical 5B Drumsticks

The Zildjian Limited Edition 400th Anniversary Classical 5B Nylon Dip Drumsticks (Z5BND-400) are composed of select hickory wood and feature an oval nylon tip, black DIP coating, 16” length, 5B diameter, and Zildjian 400th Anniversary logo with Classical Cymbalist design. This design celebrates the entry of Zildjian cymbals into popular music. During the mid-to-late nineteenth century, composers such as Berlioz and Wagner began featuring an abundance of cymbals in their compositions and requested that only Zildjian cymbals be used. It was during this time that cymbals achieved an important and permanent position in orchestras. Inspired by a Turkish tapestry from the same era, these silhouetted illustrations of orchestral percussionists celebrate this milestone.
