Newly-designed for better beater action, Pearl's DB150 DuoBeater offers the sound and feel of both felt and solid plastic beaters in one convenient beater option. Choose a punchier, more giving attack with the felt beater or the slapping, powerful strike of the Plastic beater (a sound similar to traditional Wood beaters). Incorporating the Control Core elastomer center featured on Pearl's most elite bass drum pedals, it eliminates unwanted vibration from the head for a more solid, accurate stroke.
