Jeff Queen Solo Stick

Recently BB 55th anniversary preparation camp i have broke my stick( Vic-Firth Corpmaster Ralph Hardimon) is a tough stick too...

during the last day rehersal i had break it! IT SO UNCOOL!!
but is a chance for me to get a new stick haha ~














Jeff Queen (SJQ)
Jeff's new signature stick has full round tip for consistent sound quality regardless of the angle of approach. The long taper and reduced neck size produce excellent speed. A slight taper toward the rounded butt end improves “back-sticking” control and sound quality.
L = 17”, Dia. =.725” at butt, .675” at shaft.

I Am Ready to use it this coming saturday wahaha!
