About this item

• Crafted from solid hickory for a sharp sound — the Timber Drum Co. Slapstick is constructed from solid Tennessee hickory to give it an organic, sharp and cutting whip crack sound while being extraordinarily durable (most drumsticks are made of hickory)
• Made in the U.S.A. — every Timber Drum Co. instrument is made from Tennessee hardwood that is hand-crafted by skilled experts in our Nashville, Tennessee workshop — features a hand-rubbed oil finish that darkens the look
• For any setting – at 18" L x 2.2" H x 0.8" W, the Timber Drum Co. Slapstick creates an authentic, sharp tone that carries over other instruments from concert band to orchestral percussion and choral groups to sound effects for holiday musicals
• Lightweight and easy to play – weighing 1lb., this slapstick can easily be played with one hand so you can pick it up quickly for accented sound effects while playing other percussion instruments like sleigh bells or shakers at the same time
• Steel spring hinge for a seamless touch – the two pieces of hickory are joined with a strong nickel-plated steel spring hinge that has a reactive touch at any volume – this hinge is highly responsive to your hand movements for precise accents on the beat
• Comfortable grip – the ergonomically shaped hickory handle is designed to immediately fit comfortably in your hand to eliminate awkward hand positioning or fumbling to get the right grip
