Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cost to buy custom logo drumsticks?
It costs anywhere between $4 to $15 a pair for drumsticks custom imprinted with your logo or design. The more you buy, the less they cost. We have several different printing programs to choose from so contact us for details. Minimums apply.
How do I place a custom drumsticks order?
All you need is artwork. Kindly fill out our Drumsticks Quote Form and we'll send you pricing and information. You can also contact us via phone or email if you'd like. You'll simply choose which one of our print programs you want to use and place your order with us either by email or over the phone. It's that simple. 🙂
Can I order just 1 pair?
Sure can. While most of our orders are for bulk, now and then someone might need only one pair. We have our engraved printing program where we sell them one at a time. They can be ordered directly from our Drum Bum website here. For all bulk orders, please fill out our custom quote form.
What types of custom printed drumsticks do you offer?
One of the things that makes us unique is, we offer several types of printing programs where most companies that sell custom printed drumsticks only offer one type.
Program 1: With this custom sticks program, we hot stamp (text only) onto a quality drumstick. No artwork required. We use a default text and we can stamp in colors blue, red, purple, and black. This is very low-cost program for those that just need something simple but want to market their brand with a message. / Minimum: 75 pairs
Program 2: This custom program uses a pad-printing process for those that really want to save money with custom drumstick printing yet still have a high quality, printed drumstick at a terrific price point. This is our 2nd most popular program. Minimum: 100 pairs
Program 3: This 360° Printing Capability printing method is our most popular. This program offers the most flexibility and can fit the needs of most of our customers. It is not a cheap wrap. We use a patent-pending, full color HD process that heat-fuses your artwork into the drumsticks, ensuring the highest quality drumstick printing in the industry. These sticks have what we refer to as the WOW factor. / Minimum: 12 pairs
​
Program 4: These are our painted drumsticks. Yup, they're dipped in paint and left to dry! :) We can then add your text (only) to them. This method is more time consuming to produce and hence, a bit more costly. Note that most people that think they want painted sticks usually go with our program 3 for the artwork and lower pricing. / Minimum: 50 pairs
​
Program 5: This is our laser-engraving custom sticks program. Also more labor intensive so more costly. / Minimum: 1 pair
​
Program 6: Some of our pro drummers want specifically the Vater brand of drumsticks. We created this option just for them. We only print the color black for this program, not full color. / Minimum: 36 pairs
We're happy to go over these programs with you. Simply fill out our custom quote form.
What kind of artwork do you need from me?
For drumstick imprinting, we require 'print-ready' artwork.
For our Program 2, we prefer vector (SVG, EPS, PDF) but can still work with other formats.
For our Program 3, (360° printing) we accept formats PDF, PNG, PSD, or JPEG.

We get it; artwork can be tricky for those that don't work regularly in the digital art arena. Contact us any time if you need assistance and we'll help in any way that we can.
What types of drumsticks sizes do you carry?
Most of our drumstick stock consists of 5A and 5B maple as that is the preference of most of our customers. The 5B size is recommend as it allows ample room for your company artwork and band logos to be seen. We do keep some stock on hand for sizes 7A, Rock, 2B, and 3S marching drumsticks.
How long does it take to get my sticks?
Under 10 years. 😉 ... Seriously, most orders up to 500 pairs ship within 1 to 3 weeks. Larger orders can take 3 to 5 weeks to ship. No worries if you need them sooner. We have rush shipping options if your event date is coming up fast.
Geesh, how many custom stick websites do you have?
​LOL... we get this a lot. As part of the Drum Bum, Inc. network, we have a significant online presence with numerous drumstick and drum-related websites online. We're glad you found us and get ready for a top-notch customer service experience and top-quality printed drumsticks. That's what we're known for. 😊
How do I buy BLANK drumsticks from you?
For blank drumsticks, we currently have 2 different programs. One is for solid, playable sticks for professional drumming where they can withstand more of a beating (a recent customer said, "These are the best sticks I've every played with!") The other is geared more for promotional use like handing out at conventions or for engraving and imprinting. Please fill out our drumsticks quote form for current pricing.
Do you sell other custom imprinted music products?
We do! Things like egg shakers, tambourines, maracas, harmonica, picks, music note clocks, and even custom drumstick pens and keychains. See our custom music products here. We're continually adding to it.
Do you ship internationally?
At this time, we only ship to the United States. If you live abroad, want to order from us, and have access to a U.S. freight forwarder, we will consider shipping to you once we are paid via wire transfer or international money order. We only guarantee international shipments within the continental U.S. You will be responsible for all taxes, duties, and other associated fees your particular country may assess.
