QPercussion QSticks Colored Conversation orange/purple

General

This coloured version of the Conversation QSticks by QPercussion deliver a warm, open sound with a powerful punch. Most rods tend to sound thin in the high frequencies, but these QSticks don't have that problem at all. They sound a lot like sturdy brushes, but offer a sandy-sounding attack. The Conversation rods are based on the Whisper model by the same brand, but have twice as many sticks (37 per rod) and a grip size of 2B. Compared to the Conversation Natural QSticks, the Conversation Coloured QSticks sound more solid.

QPercussion - QSticks

QSticks are handmade out of an extremely durable, flexible type of wood. The rods are given a double layer of lacquer that ensures them a longer lifespan than other rods on the market. Each pair is made by hand with great care and attention to detail, which means a high standard of excellence is maintained. QSticks are available in six different colours and three variations: coloured, neon coloured and natural (wood). Each colour has its own unique sound and volume range. The yellow rods are for lighter, softer playing, while the purple set is meant for the heavy stuff. The colour-coding allows you to instantly recognise the set you need if you own several pairs of QSticks.

By sliding the rubber ring on each stick up or down, you can adjust the sound it produces. Sliding it towards the handle ensures a lighter sound, and sliding it the other way gives you a heavier sound with a more focused attack. The tips of the QSticks rods are rounded for optimal rebound, better stick control and to protect your drum head. These sticks are endorsed by various artists around the globe including Alex Acuña, Luis Conte, and Adam Nussbaum.
