Promark Cool Rods are designed for a more delicate sound than the standard Hot Rods. Made of premium select birch dowels, these rods provide an excellent consistency and feel. With a sound somewhere between a wire brush and a hickory drumstick, rods are the perfect sound source for the "unplugged" gig. Nineteen small premium select birch dowels make up this stick. Smooth grip for easy playability Unique wrap near the neck provides a tight sound with just enough texture and improves durability.
