From the first beat, you'll hear a difference. That's because the VicKick Beaters® were designed with sound quality as the number one priority. Available in felt, wood and fleece, each model features a spherical head for a consistent striking surface and provides a distinct level of articulation, all while achieving an enhanced low-end sound. Within the VicKick series, both the felt and wood beaters feature a unique dual striking position. Set in the "radial" position, the beater provides clear articulation, consistent rebound and allows for side-by-side clearance when used on double pedal setups. The "flat" position increases beater surface contact for enhanced sound. The fleece beater is crafted with an oval felt core and sets up in a singular position.
With its roots in Afro-Peruvian tradition, the centuries-old cajon has seen a major resurgence, becoming the darling of the contemporary music scene. Portable and versatile, it is one of the most exciting percussion instruments of our time! “Although the cajon is traditionally played with the hands, today’s percussionists are experimenting with a variety of implements in pursuit of new and exciting sounds,” states Neil Larrivee, Vice President of Education and Drumstick Product Development for Vic Firth Co. “For all the cajon brushes out there, we were surprised to learn that very few of them actually address the unique needs of this emerging instrument!”
