Rebound 5B

Product Description

The Promark Rebound 5B Acorn (RBH595N) is a hickory drumstick with a nylon tip, made for players who want light feel and strong rebound. The neck is long and tapered, giving extra bounce and making the stick well suited to dynamic playing. The diameter corresponds to a classic 5B.

• 16" length and 0.595" diameter, equivalent to 5B
• 3" long, tapered neck for strong rebound
• Nylon tip (Acorn)
• Pitch- and weight-matched pairs

Rebound Balance – rebound and light feel

Rebound Balance has a longer, thinner neck than the Forward models, with the weight shifted toward the back. This gives extra rebound and a lighter playing feel, unlike Forward Balance, which has a shorter (2.25"), thicker neck with the weight shifted forward for more power and durability.

Acorn or Teardrop

The 7A, 5A and 5B base models come in two tip shapes: Teardrop (T) and Acorn (A). The Acorn Rebound generally has a slightly slimmer neck than the equivalent Teardrop model. In the full part number, Teardrop is marked T (e.g. FBH535TW) and Acorn is marked A (e.g. FBH535AW) – the full code describes the stick's build: balance type, material, thickness and tip type.

Careful matching

Each pair is pitch-matched to within 6 Hz, roughly a quarter tone, and weight-matched to within 1.5 grams between the two sticks in the pair. That gives more even rolls and a matched feel in both hands.

Manufacturing

Promark runs its own sawmill and controls the entire production chain, from timber to finished stick. The company plants five new trees for every tree it cuts down.

Who It's For

Best suited to players who want a stick with strong rebound and a light feel for dynamic playing, rather than a heavy, front-weighted stick built purely for power.
