Low Boy, stocked in Australia

I stock Low Boy beaters in Australia, and every one is a one-off custom finish, so the beater you see is the exact beater you get. Low Boy beaters are hand finished in California from North American hard maple, on an aerospace-grade chrome-plated steel rod that's guaranteed never to bend or break and fits nearly every bass drum pedal built in the last 100+ years. Price is per beater, so for a double pedal add 2 to your cart.

Which Low Boy?

There are eight types: four striking surfaces, each in a midweight and a lightweight version.

• Standard and Lightweight: a flat wood face with plenty of power and a light touch. The Standard is 95g. The Lightweight is 80g and Low Boy calls it the world's lightest wood bass drum beater.
• Felt Daddy and Lightweight Felt Daddy: a hard, flat felt face with the warmth of a round felt beater and extra clarity. 95g or 80g.
• Leather Daddy and Lightweight Leather Daddy: a flat leather face that sits between wood and felt, a warm smack that is not too hard and not too soft. 95g or 80g.
• Puff Daddy and Lightweight Puff Daddy: a soft, lush shearling lambswool puff held on by a magnet, so it's replaceable, with a wide dynamic range from whisper quiet to thunderously loud. 100g or 85g.

The midweights give you plenty of power with a light touch. The lightweights are built for speed and control.
