DanmarDA 206 White Felt Head Bass Standard Drum Beater

Great beater! Large beater surface for a deep fat tone. Fits my DW 5000.

Battente in feltro duro.Perfetto per avere un buon attacco.Materiali buoni!

Love the classic beater. You definitely get a deeper tone than with the smaller modern beaters, no question about that. This design is timeless. I just replaced one after a decade or so because the felt does smash up (I used it that way for a flat hit), but it's just like drum sticks, gotta renew it from time to time. I never looked into adjusting my pedal's cam for a more flat response because the feel is there. Coated PS3 batter, clear (or FS PS3) reso, off center felt on both sides, no holes - a real man's bass drum!

This humble little beater is awesome. It has the perfect amount of mass and just the right texture and firmness for punch and fullness. For my fellow 18” kickers out there, you will not need to shorten the shaft (unless you insist on the beater striking dead center, which is a fool’s errand). Enjoy!

There's a reason Danmar beaters are so highly rated, the quality in the construction. I still have my cherry red wooden beater that I used years ago in a hard rock touring band and it still looks brand new. Now I'm playing Jazz Fusion and the felt beater is perfect for the sound I'm looking for. If you need a new beater check out Danmar's selection, they'll have you covered !!!
