ABSTRACT:
A drumstick and method of making it are disclosed, wherein a rigid ring is fixed to a drumstick body. The ring is disposed substantially at a pivot point located at a position disposed sufficiently rearwardly from the drumstick body tip that the majority of the weight of the body is disposed forwardly of the ring. The predetermined distance is determined by supporting the drumstick body between a fulcrum and a scale, and moving the fulcrum and the scale relative to one another until the scale reads a certain percentage of the weight of the drumstick body to determine where the pivot point is located on the body.
