Headhunters Doobies Bundle Sticks
The concept of bundled rods are not new, many have copied the original design of the 19 dowels that form a hexagonal shape. Construction methods may vary, however, good response and bounce seem to be missing in their attempts to recreate this particular mouse trap. In order to achieve a bundled rod sound and create a drumstick like bounce, we have inserted an internal dowel. This format allows the stick to be round in diameter. In the gripping area we have glued the dowels together; this stiffens the sticks and aids in the bounce response. We also split the centre dowel so that the interplay between the dowels is further enriched. By splitting the centre dowel to about the 40mm mark from the playing end, allows the centre dowel in the split zone to compress and spring back. The resulting design creates the sound expectations of the bundled rod concept but with significantly more rebound and with the feel and response of a solid drumstick. Learn More -
Headhunters Rads Bundle Sticks
When the original patent design expired, many companies copied the Hot Rods design. However, why copy if you can enhance its unique design? And that is what we did with Rads; our design incorporates some of the ideas we discovered while building other unique bundled sticks. The result appears the same but you must play them appreciate the difference, more bounce yields greater dynamic range and articulation. Learn More -
Headhunters Reefers Bundle Sticks
Reefers have a total of 7 dowels, the outer 6 dowels are birch and the centre rod is synthetic. Rather than band these together near the playing end, each stick has 3 ‘O’ Rings that can be adjusted to create your own sound spectrums. The synthetic core adds a little more strength to the overall integrity… hence the name ‘Reefers’ Learn More -
Headhunters Spliffs Bundle Sticks
Incorporate similar playing features as the Blunts and Doobies. Excellent rebound! The centre core is comprised of a North American 5/16 diameter birch dowel, single cut down to the ‘sweet spot’ which allows the dowel to compress and open adding bounce and enhancing its performance characteristics. This core is then surrounded by 11 bamboo dowels. Our Headhunters double textured ‘X’ grip is 8″ long for a to ensure a comfort for both the matched grip or traditional grip player, the playing end is banded and an adjustable ) ring is added to allow for personal fine tuning.
