Promark Thunder Rod Drum Sticks

The D'Addario Promark Thunder Rod drum sticks are the original bundled dowel drumsticks designed for the heaviest hitting drummers. At 0.675" in diameter (2B) and 16" in length, these are the toughest sticks in Promark's Rods series. They provide a fat, slappy tone with reduced cymbal volume for unplugged practice sessions or experimenting with different sounds. Handcrafted in the USA from select birch dowels and featuring comfortable heat-shrink grips, the Thunder Rods produce Promark's patented Rods sound at maximum volume and durability. For drummers seeking to unleash their most thunderous playing in a way standard drumsticks simply can't withstand, Promark Thunder Rod drum sticks are the ultimate solution.

Bundles of Birch for Unbeatable Strength

Seven bundled birch dowels provide the Thunder Rods with unparalleled durability to withstand even the hardest hits. While standard drumsticks can crack under extreme force, these bundled birch dowels distribute impact energy to prevent breakage. The result is a drumstick able to keep up with a drummer's most intense playing.

Patented Rods Sound at Maximum Volume

Promark's patented Rods provide a unique sound unlike any standard drumstick. The seven bundled birch dowels produce a fat, muted tone for practice without disturbing others. Perfect for experimenting with different sounds and textures around the kit, these sticks unleash a thunderous version of Promark's Rods sound.

Ergonomic Handle for Comfortable Control

While the Thunder Rods produce an intense volume and tone, their ergonomic handle provides comfortable control. The heat-shrink grip conforms perfectly to hand shape for an ergonomic hold allowing precise control and articulation. The result is a drumstick able to unleash a thunderous sound without sacrificing playability or comfort.
