Large broomcorn broomsticks with adjustable O-rings for a robust, versatile sound between brushes and rods.

The ProMark PMBRM Large Broomsticks are a powerful hybrid percussion tool, blending the softness of brushes with the heft of rods to deliver a unique sound for low-volume and acoustic performances. Crafted from actual broomcorn with a 14 1/2" (36.83cm) length and 1" (2.54cm) handle diameter, these broomsticks feature adjustable O-rings to control bristle spread, allowing players to shift from a soft, brush-like response to a stiffer, rod-like punch. Offering greater volume than brushes but less attack than rods, they produce a warm, full tone ideal for acoustic drum sets, cajons, or “unplugged” gigs like jazz, folk, or Latin percussion.

Compared to the PMBRM1 Medium and PMBRM2 Small, the PMBRM Large delivers a fuller, more robust sound, praised for its “wuchtiger” tone and natural stick-like grip. Users highlight their versatility on cajons and acoustic kits, though they note limited projection on cymbals (especially ride cymbals) and potential bristle wear with heavy use, recommending lighter playing for longevity. Manufactured in the USA at D’Addario’s Texas facility, the PMBRM reflects ProMark’s 65-year legacy of quality and innovation.
