Étude Lite | Concert Snare Stick

Honey, I shrunk the Études!

The Étude Lite keeps all the things that make the original Étude sticks so well-loved: they’re super responsive, perfectly balanced, with smooth rolls and clean articulation all in one package. The difference? This version is a bit shorter and slimmed down all around, making it perfect for those who prefer the feel of a more traditionally-sized concert snare stick.

These are also a great choice when you need something a little more nimble at softer dynamics. While the original Étude sticks make easy work of big, fast dynamic changes, the smaller bead and lighter overall weight of the Étude Lites makes crispy low-volume playing so easy, it might feel like cheating.

You still get the signature cone-shaped bead and the perfect balance that make the Étude so versatile, plus the same solid American Hickory for durability and that big, full sound when you need it.

The Étude Lite is just as great for solos, études, excerpts - you name it. Same design, just a little slimmer.
