ProLogix 13" David Ellis "Hybrid" Practice Pad

About “Hybrid“ David Ellis Signature Marching Pro Pad (PX/DEPAD):

• This practice pad is designed for “on the go“ high school marching students, drum corp players and educators who require a high quality compact practice tool that is multi-functional.
• The main playing surface measures 13“ in diameter and provides articulation and feel just as an actual marching drum head.
• A replicated rubber rim is applied around the perimeter of the playing surface to simulate an actual rim. This keeps the overall weight down and saves on life of the sticks unlike metal or plastic rims of the past.
• The back side of the “Hybrid“ Instrument features a mini quint tenor layout for practicing movements, exercises and music. The 3“ center spot can also be used as a focus pad for working on precision. The Blue Nylon Material surrounding the five tenor spots serves as a third practice surface as well.
• A ProLogix® Grafix adhesive laminate is included and applied to the main playing surface for greater articulation and simulation of a marching drum head. Unlike Mylar laminates on the market, ProLogix® Grafix laminates do not crack into pieces, separate or fall off.
• Snare Basket Receivers assure total stability and provides angle options when placed inside any snare stand basket.
• The pad base is constructed from 3/4“ Baltic Birch providing excellent durability, true solid feel and pitch. The base is sealed with a special water resistance finish.
