## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does the image shown here says the length is 18 inches but the product description shows 17 inches?  Which is correct?**
A: The length of the Hardimon Corpsmaster stick is exactly 17"

**Q: Are these white tipped?**
A: The tips are a natural finish - there is no white paint on the tips.

**Q: Do you get two?**
A: Yes, I received two sticks.

**Q: This drum stick is .710 in diameter. I normally play 2b's that are around .625. What is the official designation for this stick?**
A: Thanks for reaching out! These sticks are categorized as marching sticks and used primarily with high-tension Kevlar marching snare drum heads. They don't really have a designated measurement code like drum set sticks and might be a tad heavy for use on the drum kit. They do have fantastic rebound and I personally love using them with my practice pad. Let me know if you have any other questions! ---Rupp's Drums
