FLIX FIBRE STICKS ROCK BRUSHES
BRUSH ROCK with thicker durable fibers and more weight than most other brushes. Rock brushes create unique, high volume levels on kit and cymbals in situations where other brushes would be drowned out. Excellent dynamic range and cymbal presence
More recently brushes with plastic or nylon wires have made an appearance. Their sound is noticeably more subdued, duller and warmer when sweeping, and when striking the drum more plasticky (obviously). The plastic brushes are also bendier and so get “left behind” more when sweeping. However they readily spring back into shape so are less likely than wire brushes to be permanently bent.
Similar in balance and dynamic facility to the Jazz brush, but with 60% more fibers producing more 'punch' from greater weight.
