Los Cabos Drumsticks
Los Cabos Drumsticks have a long history of woodworking preceding their entrance into the world of music. For many years Larry and Gillian operated a wood turning business, turning legs for tables and chairs until a chance one-time contract opened their eyes to the exciting and ever-changing world that is the music industry. The majority of the wood used by Los Cabos is grown and harvested by the Forest Stewardship Council, a non-profit organization that supports environmentally appropriate, socially responsible and economically viable management of the world’s forests.

Los Cabos also boasts the use of red hickory which comes from the heart of the tree, which makes the sticks stronger and more durable.

Some artists playing Los Cabos drumsticks are: Rikki Rockett, Richie Ramone and Georg Lenhardt.

"We can’t be more excited to be working with the folks at Los Cabos and making their great drumsticks available in the U.S. market. Los Cabos has done a fantastic job of creating a sought after product that will be a big hit with dealers and consumers. The addition of Los Cabos drumsticks to ZMI's portfolio of products, that includes Impression Cymbals is a natural fit, and we look forward to being able to provide these high quality products to the dealer base and U.S. percussionists."
