Promark Hot Rods offer you more attack and projection than a pair of brushes would offer. Made from premium select birch dowels, these rods provide an excellent feel and responsive rebound. The larger diameter dowels produce a bright, articulate cymbal sound somewhere between a wire brush and drumstick. Hot Rods are the perfect choice when you want more attack and cut for an unplugged gig. The butt ends of the Promark Rods are engineered to function as mallets, expanding the array of sonic possibilities available. With their quick response, Hot Rods allow you to explore a wide range of articulations and dynamics.
