Career Milestone: Endorsement
Hi Stick family,
I'm very happy and excited to make a special announcement about another kind of stick...
I've signed on as an endorser with the Rich Stick drumstick company!
Owners Josh Mimms and William Fitzpatrick make a GREAT stick, as well as some very cool accessories, and they can custom-tailor sticks for every drummer, not just a select few top-tier endorsers. I'm grateful to fellow drummer/teacher Chris Marro for introducing me to the company, and to Josh for being so great to work with right from the first day I met him.
I have two stick designs that bear my name, the "Luc Bergeron-Multi" (which is the first design Josh and I worked on, and it covers most of the drumming I need to do) and the "Luc Bergeron-Lite" (which is perfect for jazz and low-volume settings). Last night Josh and his family were gracious enough to let me swing by their house on my way to a gig in Manchester NH to pick up my first batch of my signature sticks.
This is a great small company whose business ethics and design philosophies are a cool mix of old school techniques and new unique processes. Dare I say, they remind me of Stick Enterprises in those ways, which is a big reason they were so attractive to me. I sincerely thank Josh and Fitz for adding me to the Rick Sticks family, and I'm happy to talk with anyone about their wonderful products and my "switch to Rich"!
