Who says there’s nothing new in the world of kick drum beaters? The DW HardCore beater revolutionizes the world of kick drums. It’s so unique that DW actually patented it! How does it work? A hard plastic core is embedded in a soft foam rubber pad. When you adjust the level of contact the core has with the drum head, you can get exactly the amount of attack you want. The HardCore gives you both the response of a felt beater when you play softly, and the attack and impact of a hard plastic or wood beater when you lay into it.
