LP LP9914 Synthetic Heavyweight Adjustable Core Rhythm Rods

LP Rhythm Rods:

Latin Percussion (LP) is proud to introduce its latest line of synthetic percussion rods, called Rhythm Rods. These innovative products, created with drummers and percussionists in mind, aim to provide greater versatility and expand the sonic spectrum in every performance.

Rhythm Rods are synthetic rods constructed from a combination of many thin, high-quality polymer dowels .

Each one is equipped with an ergonomic, non-slip rubber grip and an adjustable sleeve, as well as O-rings, which allow for precise fine-tuning of the sonic palette by controlling the spread of the dowels.

The Rhythm Rods range includes various models:

• LP9911 Lightweight Rhythm Rods (7/8” diameter): These lightweight rods feature a reinforced core, which guarantees excellent balance, stability, and playing comfort. Ideal for achieving subtle sounds and precise attack.
• LP9912 Heavyweight Rhythm Rods (1-1/8” diameter): For those who prefer more massive rods, this model offers a reinforced core, providing even greater control over the sound. Ideal for achieving powerful, full tones.
• LP9913 Synthetic Lightweight Adjustable Core Rhythm Rods (7/8” diameter): This model is a combination of lightness with an adjustable core and a retractable stick, allowing you to customize articulation to your needs.
• LP9914 Synthetic Heavyweight Adjustable Core Rhythm Rods (1-1/8” diameter): This is a more massive version of the LP9913 model, also with an adjustable core and retractable stick, providing greater control over the sound.
• LP9917 Natural Rhythm Rods (1-1/4” diameter): 13-inch long rods made of thin dowels from organic material, allowing for increased control over dynamics and rebound.

The new LP Rhythm Rods series offers an excellent balance between the sound obtained with drumsticks and the sonic characteristics of brushes.
The dowels provide a softer attack, ideal for acoustic performances in smaller venues. However, when the O-ring is tightened, articulation increases, and the sound gains mass and richness, perfect for studio recordings.
