John Devos - Signature Artist
5B | Acorn | 17" | Natural
"After noticing that the quality of the drumsticks that I had been using for 15+ years had started to decrease I wanted to try something new. Scorpion was the first brand I tested out and I instantly knew they were the ones that I would stick with. The quality is unmatched, the weight balance is perfect, and the overall feel is what I've been looking for for years. They are the perfect stick. My only complain is that it took me this long to find them."
