Description

This Rockstick is the heavier sibling of the Light Bundle, designed for drummers who need presence and power without the harshness of wood sticks. The thicker bundle design adds weight and volume, while the polymer rods soften the attack for a more musical response. The result is a hybrid stick that bridges the gap between traditional sticks and rods, making it a go-to tool for dynamic players who thrive in acoustic and lower-volume rock environments.

Sound & Feel:

  • Enhanced Projection – Thicker rod bundle delivers a fuller, louder tone

  • Smooth Rebound – Rebound handle design provides consistent bounce and control

  • Controlled Attack – Polymer construction reduces harsh transients while maintaining definition

  • Stable Grip – Slightly larger diameter with textured surface for secure, comfortable handling

Built for Performance:

  • Heavy-duty polymer rods withstand aggressive playing without fraying

  • Designed for rock, fusion, and acoustic applications where control and power are key

  • Shock-absorbing handle minimises hand fatigue during longer sets

  • Ideal for professional or rehearsal environments where tone matters as much as volume

Ideal For:

  • Drummers who play with power but need volume control

  • Acoustic rock, worship, and unplugged performers seeking strong articulation

  • Players who want a heavier alternative to rods or brushes

  • Musicians looking for a stick with hybrid feel and enhanced durability

Deliver heavy-handed tone with a gentle touch — the Ahead Rockstick – Heavy Bundle gives you power, precision, and performance all in one stick.
