The Promark Forward FireGrain drumsticks combine the natural feel of hickory with Promark's patented FireGrain heat-tempering process, creating a remarkably durable drumstick without altering its weight, balance or response. Designed for players who prefer a front-weighted feel, the Forward profile features a short taper that shifts more mass toward the tip for increased power, speed and projection. A classic oval wood tip delivers a warm, full-bodied tone across drums and cymbals, making these sticks well suited for a variety of musical applications. Crafted from select hickory and matched using Promark's ProMatch process for exceptional consistency, this 2-pack of Forward FireGrain drumsticks provides a dependable combination of durability, balance and response for demanding playing situations.
