When to choose it

The Hot Rods are a good model to compare when your part needs a bundled contact with less attack than ProMark’s Lightning Rods. Hot uses nineteen medium birch dowels. Lightning uses seven larger ones. The same repeated pattern on a snare or ride gives you a practical way to compare how the notes start.

The published diameter is 0.550 inches and the length is 16 inches. Compare those measurements with the sticks you usually hold as well as the bundle. ProMark has updated the butt cap. If you specifically want the newer playable cap, confirm the version in stock before ordering.
