QPercussion's QSticks are hand-made rods that boast high quality. These 5A-sized 'reds' have a special triangular grip that makes sure the broad side of the tip hits the drumhead first, resulting in extra-beefy sound.
The handmade QSticks are made of a very strong and pliable type of wood. They have two coats of lacquer that make the rods last longer. This yellow variant is one of the softest versions, but delivers powerful rimshots.
The red version of the QSticks gives a slightly stronger sound compared to the yellow version. These rods have a special triangle grip that puts the wide side of the top on the drumhead. This gives a fat sound.
The purple edition of the QPercussion QSticks are the thickest in the range, making these rods just a touch quieter than standard drumsticks, while the sound remains fuller and more warm than standard rods. These QSticks have a 2B diameter.
The Natural QSticks have the same colour codes as the Colored variations, they just have a more subtle finish. So these yellow Natural QSticks are basically the same as the yellow Colored QSticks. For subtle play.
With QSticks, thickness is indicated by colour. These purple rods are the thickest QSticks made. They sound softer than sticks, but warmer and fuller than normal rods. Thickness: 2B.
