Product Description

Promark uses only premium, hand-selected wood. Each stick is hand-finished and hand-inspected for that classic Pro-Mark look, feel, and sound. A consistent supply of premium quality wood means consistent production of the highest quality drumsticks. Promark's 40 years of unequaled success in drumstick production is recognized by the top wood mills in the United States and Japan. This assures Pro-Mark of priority delivery, and guarantees an uninterrupted year-round supply of wood. Promark's Millenium II? process is a proprietary system which is unique to the drumstick industry. This treatment actually strengthens the wood and improves its resonance. It reduces the chance of warping during production, shipment and storage at retail stores or distribution warehouses. Promark is now using an environmentally friendly finish as opposed to the ordinary lacquer used by most other manufacturers. This finish is completely non-toxic, with no waste or residue, which is hazardous and difficult to dispose of. It makes Pro-Mark sticks less sensitive to moisture changes than standard drumsticks. The result is significantly improved quality and consistency as well as a finish that is more comfortable to the touch. ... Read more

This actually works - and works well
I purchased this key on a whim.When it arrived the instructions were not clear, but I sat the dial to #2, loosened all of the lugs on my floor tom and went around my lugs using opposing lug patterns, and tested the first cut of tuning. Too loose and deep, so I increased the setting to #3 and repeated.Almost the sound I wanted, so I used a regular key and went an eighth turn using the same pattern.Perfect.I then started on the next largest tom, working back to the smallest.Using the #3 setting plus an eighth turn I got my toms 1/2 octave apart.

Next I worked on my snare drum, starting with the snare side, then the batter side. I used #4 on the batter side and #5 on the snare side, and managed to get the crisp, yet warm, sound I wanted. The bass drum came next - I set the batter side tension 1 notch below the resonant side and achieve a great tuning. From there I went back and set the resonant sides of each of my four toms one notch higher than the batter side and marveled at the perfect tuning I attained.

This is an easy device to use - with the lever facing you move it to the left, loosen all of your lugs, then tighten each starting with one or two. When the lever clicks and moves to the right position you have reached the torque setting.Test, increase a notch if necessary, and repeat until you get the sound you want. Set the resonant heads either one notch higher or lower to make sure the batter and resonant heads do not cancel each other (and to your desired sound), and you will have a perfectly tuned set.

I'll never go back to tuning by ear!You'll be amazed by the results if you tune with this key, and don't forget to write down your optimum settings. ... Read more

Product Description

The trim and unobtrusive Min-EMAD removes unwanted frequencies, retaining the desired attack, resonance, and feel. A deceptively simple damping device based on solid acoustical principles, the Min-EMAD consists of a fabric ?bridge? that links the resonant head with the relatively inert, metal counterhoop. When attached by Velcro dots to both head and rim, the Min-EMAD removes overtones by controlling the vibration of the head. With absolute minimal intrusion on the batter (or the resonant) surface, the result is a focused, unchoked tone. For minimal overtone reduction, the Min-EMAD can be attached to the head close to the rim; for increased damping, it may be positioned further from the rim. Maximum damping is achieved when the Min-EMAD is extended to its full length or used on both the batter and resonant heads. ... Read more

These Sticks are G-R-E-A-T!
These are probally the best sticks I've ever had. A friend recommended these to me and ever since I have used them. These drumsticks are very light and thin, so therefore they are best for quick, fast, and long pices. They're also good for long drumrolls and smashing the symbals. My expirience with these sticks has been great! If you buy these I would recommend the ones with the wooden tips. Where I bought mine they were expensive, but on Amazon.com you can get them for a decent price. Compared to my old ones these are way better.

Competes with many high-end pedals
When I purchased this pedal from a local music store I wasn't even looking for a double pedal set, but for a replacement for the pedal that came with my Tama Stagestar kit.During my quest for a pedal that had the feel I wanted I sat behind a Pacific drum kit that had these pedals. At first I ignored the second bass pedal and played a bit with just the right pedal and hi-hat.I liked the feel of the right pedal and was about to ask if the store had it in a single pedal configuration when I decided to see what it was like playing double. Wow - it immediately expanded my range and opened up a plethora of possibilities.

This pedal is nearly infinitely adjustable, especially cam rotation, spring tension, and beater offset.Most of the adjustments require a hex wrench, which is fairly standard for most modern single and double pedals. The left side slave pedal has a full floorplate, and the linkage rod that connects the right and left pedals will not bind at any angle I have tried.There is a slight lag on the left pedal, which is normal for any double pedal configuration, but you'll quickly compensate for that as you get used to a double pedal if you are moving from a single pedal.

Before I purchased this particular model I tried out Tama's Iron Cobra, Pearl's Powershifter and a Gilbralter Avenger.I did not like the stiffness of the Iron Cobra, but did like the Pearl and Gibraltar pedals.It finally came down to either this or the Gibralter, which was slightly smoother, but significantly more expensive.I opted for best value without sacrificing performance or quality and am thrilled with this pedal.

If you are moving from a single to double pedal configuration I strongly recommend that you give this one a serious look.More importantly, try out this pedal in a local store and compare it to other double models - selecting a bass pedal is a personal decision with many more factors than price, features and quality.It has to feel right.In addition, you will find that you will be using the double bass more than your hi-hat, which means that you will need to compensate.For that I recommend the Gibraltar hi-hat drop clutch (ASIN B0002F73YY), which will allow you to engage and disengage your hi-hat with ease.I have my hi-hats set for a slight opening in the normal closed position, but stepping on the hi-hat pedal - using the clutch - puts it in full play position.Tapping the lever on the clutch closes them again.This clutch is a perfect companion to a double bass pedal! ...
