Drumsticks Promark Mike Portnoy Signature 420N

Promark Mike Portnoy Signature 420N is a custom-designed model of drumsticks from one of the most influential progressive metal drummers. Created in collaboration with Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater, Liquid Tension Experiment), this model is ideal for complex technical parts that require control, speed, and clear articulation.

The sticks are made from American hickory, the industry standard, which provides a balance between strength, flexibility, and sensitivity. The narrow and long taper promotes quick rebound, reducing hand fatigue during high-speed playing. The nylon oval tip produces a bright, focused sound, especially on cymbals, maintaining clarity even with complex textures.

At 16 1/8 inches long and .531 inches in diameter, this model is slightly lighter and thinner than standard 5A/5B sticks, providing comfortable playability while maintaining power. Ideal for drummers looking for clarity, control, and speed in one instrument.
