DWBass Drum Flyweight Beater
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
DW's Bass Drum Flyweight Beater is a lightweight beater made to change the pedal response toward faster movement and quick rebound. That lighter action is aimed at rapid patterns as well as softer, more controlled strikes, with less fatigue during extended playing described as a benefit. Its lighter head shifts the bass-drum sound toward a sharper attack, with less thump and more snap. It can be installed on most standard drum pedals.
Strong match
Who this is for

Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers seeking the heavier feel associated with a heavier bass-drum beater.
