A TWIST above the rest!
Creative Percussion Twist Rods Multi-Rods are built to last!
The Twist Rods Short Grips are available in our Jazz (19 dowels) and Jazz Lite (14 dowels) models.
All our Twist Rods models are made in the USA from domestically grown Birch dowels, hand-dipped in lacquer for more durability. Their grips are all fully glued, not just spot glued in a few places. All models have our signature, patent-pending twist which allows for more rebound, a fatter sound, and more flexibility in the dowels. Our grip-wrap is a thicker polyolefin wrap, which is more durable than the typical wraps you find in most other brands. Each pair comes with adjustable "O" rings* to give you control and the option to get an open fat brush effect or closed tight stick sound.
How do they differ from our standard grip Twist Rods?
- They have less of a twist than our Standard Twist Rods to give more of a brush feel, while still having more rebound, a fatter sound and more flexibility in the dowels than other brands of rods with no twist.
Both Short Grip Jazz and Jazz Lite models:
- Come standard with vinyl cap ends for a more traditional feel.
- Cap ends are color coordinated so you always know which model of rod you’re grabbing.
You can also get Rubber Butt-Ends to fit either rod choice. Swap out the vinyl caps for the rubber butt-ends easily to give yourself a great counterbalance as well as the ability to get some amazing cymbal swells or tom rolls, with more attack than a standard mallet.
*We suggest storing all Twist Rods in the open position with the "O" rings where the grip-wrap meets the open dowels for the best results. Storing Twist Rods in the closed position, with the "O" rings at the playing tip may result in a lesser dowel flare over time.
