Made of American Hickory, .551 inches (14 mm) in diameter, and 16 inches long.

Made of American Hickory, .551 inches (14 mm) in diameter, and 16 inches long, the Pro Mark TX515W Joey Jordison Signature Drum Sticks feature a round wood tip for exceptional articulation, power and consistency.

These truly unique drum sticks feature the tribal S that all Slipknot fans have come to know and love as well as Joey's number 1. The red ink on the sticks have even been mixed with Joey's blood!

Said Joey of the sticks, "The first wood stick I ever played was a Pro Mark, so I'm thrilled to be joining the family! To show everyone just how serious I am about my new signature 515s, I've even gone as far as putting my own blood in the ink for them. It's not just my signature on these sticks, it's me."

As a member of Slipknot and Murderdolls, Joey Jordison has established himself as one of metal's premier drummers. Fans got to witness Joey playing the sticks for the first time on Slipknot's recent sold out All Hope Is Gone headline arena tour in the United States.

"Awesome Sticks"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I will never play with any other sticks other than pro marks from this point onward.
Features
The sticks have a Round Bead tip that create an even and warm tone on the drum kit.
Ease of Use
These sticks have excellent balance and I found it incredibly easy to play really fast really quickly. The sticks take a little while to get used to because of the large tip they're almost mallet-like.
Quality
These sticks are extremely durable. I've only had them since this morning but I've already hit the rim of my tom a couple of times and there wasn't even a mark on the sticks.
Value
I would pay $15 a pair for sticks of this quality, so $9 seems more than reasonable.
Manufacturer Support
I haven't had to deal with pro mark's support team and judging by the quality of these sticks, it's very unlikely that I ever will.
The Wow Factor
I think the styling of these sticks are really cool, the fonts and designs that pro mark uses are bold and iconic. The deep red colour is really cool too. I don't care much for the 'ink mixed with blood' gimmick but these sticks are really cool nonetheless.
