These rods combine 7 high quality wood dowels and 6 strips of impact resistant Polymer. The Polymer acts as a protective "striking layer" to allow the player to "dig in" without the short life span of other multi-dowel sticks. Includes rubber O-Rings for wide range of adjustment for sound and feel.
The Stick Whip takes the very popular Fusion model and adds 3 1/2" of Whip bristles to the butt-end of the stick. Great for when you need to switch between a "stick" sound and a softer "brush" sound during a performance.
19 hand-selected Birch dowels that provide warm acoustic tonality but still produce a solid "crack" around the drumkit. The extended rubber grip leaves 4" of the dowels exposed and gives a solid stick-like feel with excellent durability in the rimshot area.
The Vic Firth Rute 505 is a cross between the Vic Firth Rock Rake and the original Vic Firth Rute. A great choice for light jazz and combo playing. Made of .094″ diameter plastic bristles secured in a vinyl handle. Length=15″ Handle thickness=.690″
Use it like a brush, rute or stick --- the 5B grip size allows the player the option of using either the stick or Polybristle ends for even more sound variations. A wood handle version of the Vater Whip.
