PDP Two-Sided Bass Drum Beater (PDAX101)
The PDP PDAX101 Two-Sided Bass Drum Beater is a versatile accessory designed to instantly customize your kick drum's sound and feel. Offering dual surfaces—a soft side for classic warmth and a hard side for modern attack—this beater is an affordable and essential upgrade for any drummer seeking tonal flexibility.
Key Features
- Dual Tone Versatility: Easily switch between two distinct sounds by flipping the beater head.
- Felt/Rubber Side (Warm Tone): The softer, wider contact surface delivers a round, traditional, and warm tone, perfect for classic rock, jazz, and studio recordings where punch is secondary to depth.
- Hard Plastic Side (Sharp Attack): The firm, smaller contact surface provides a sharp, pronounced "click" or transient attack, allowing the kick drum to cut through loud mixes, ideal for heavy genres, metal, and live performances.
- Durable Construction: Built with PDP's quality standards to ensure reliability and long-term durability, withstanding thousands of gigs and heavy playing.
- Wide Compatibility: Designed with a standard 6-inch beater stem, this beater is compatible with all PDP bass drum pedals and most other drum pedal brands on the market.
