What is the difference between 'classic', 'forward balance', and 'rebound balance'? Buying for son using on snare drum and also electric drum kit.

Classic is a standard weight, the forward for me was better hitting on cymbals being a little heaver, and the rebound for me was a lighter weight same size just better bounce on the snare. I'd go for the rebound 5A would be best for snare rebound hits and the electric kit.Regards,Joe

Looking forward to buy a stack of 12. Do you guys have them in 12 pak or any pak.

They come to us in bricks of 6.

What size would be best for marching?

I have always used 5A for drumset and as an all around stick size for concert snare work. Believe most people prefer a thicker size for marching, like a 5B but its been a long time since I played a marching snare.

I’m a very heavy play are they strong will they break?

I haven't tried these yet, but I am a bit skeptical as I am also a heavy player and I have to use the shira kashi oak models to have sticks that last. I like to dig into my ride cymbals and it is hard on the tip of sticks because I like to use both the shoulder and tip on the bell. Rim shots are also required in a lot of material I perform so hickory gets ate up fairly quickly just behind the shoulder. I like how hickory feels and plays but a set was only lasting about 2 to 3 shows. The only 747 set I can find in shira kashi oak is the Neal Peart signature model so that is what I use. (When I started using this same model back in 1992 it was available in a non-signature 747 model.) I typically play 1 show a week and 2 practices a week, playing post punk and contemporary music and a pair lasts me at least 2 months. I have made one pair last as long as 6 months. I typically don't buy signature models but this model I overlook because I am a huge Neal Peart fan.
