What makes the Innovative Percussion FS-2M a 'multi-stick'?

The Innovative Percussion FS-2M is a versatile multi-stick designed for marching percussionists. It features a unique dual-ended design: one end has a traditional wood reverse teardrop bead for articulate sounds, while the other end has a felt mallet head. This allows drummers to quickly switch between different timbres and dynamics without needing to grab a separate mallet during a performance.

Who are these multi-sticks designed for?

These Field Series multi-sticks are specifically crafted for marching percussionists, particularly those playing snare drums or tenors. The dual-ended design provides flexibility for various musical passages, allowing drummers to easily transition from sharp, articulate wood sounds to softer, fuller felt tones. They are ideal for adding dynamic contrast and versatility to marching band performances and practice.

What are the benefits of the white hickory material and dimensions?

The FS-2M multi-sticks are made from durable white hickory, known for its strength and consistent feel, which is essential for the demands of marching percussion. They feature a medium taper, which provides a perfect balance of power, stability, and response. With a length of 17 inches and a diameter of .698 inches, these sticks offer excellent reach and a comfortable grip, providing the power and control needed for outdoor performances and intricate marching cadences.
