080-40998370Larnell Lewis (Snarky Puppy) is known for playing ghost notes at a whisper and backbeats at a roar—often in the same bar. To achieve this, he needed a stick that didn't exist. Enter the Promark RBLLW-FG.
This isn't just a painted stick; it is a piece of precision engineering designed to be an "extension of your hand." It solves the classic drummer's dilemma: "Do I choose a thin stick for speed or a thick stick for volume?" With this model, you don't have to choose.
Most drummers are stuck between a 5A (too light) and a 5B (too bulky).
The Goldilocks Zone: At .580" diameter, this stick sits exactly in the sweet spot between a 5A and 5B. It gives you the grip thickness needed to relax your hand during heavy hitting, but remains agile enough for blistering fast gospel chops.
Extended Reach: At 16 1/4" long, it provides extra leverage and "throw," allowing you to get more volume with less effort.
Stop breaking sticks mid-set. These sticks undergo Promark's proprietary FireGrain heat-tempering process.
The Science: The hickory is exposed to high-heat flames, caramelizing the natural sugars in the wood. This hardens the outer shell without making the stick brittle or vibrating like oak.
The Result: You get the natural feel and shock absorption of hickory, but with an armor-like durability that resists rimshot shredding far longer than standard sticks.
The tip shape defines your cymbal sound. Larnell chose a Modified Acorn tip to deliver a "dark but articulate" tone. It brings out the full low-end of your toms while keeping your ride cymbal patterns clean and defined, even at high speeds.
Vs. Standard Promark 5A If you feel like you are "overplaying" or working too hard to get volume out of a 5A, the Larnell Lewis model is the solution. The added thickness and FireGrain weight do the work for you.
Vs. Promark 5B If a 5B feels "clunky" or slow during fast fills, this stick will fix that. The Long Taper on the Larnell model removes weight from the front, giving it a much faster rebound than a standard 5B.
Signature sticks are often hard to find in India. We ensure you get the real deal.
Fresh Inventory: FireGrain sticks perform best when fresh. We import regular batches to ensure the wood hasn't dried out in a warehouse for years.
Weight Matched Pairs: We verify our stock to ensure you don't get one light stick and one heavy stick.
Authenticity Guaranteed: As authorized dealers, we sell only genuine D'Addario/Promark products. No counterfeits.
India-Wide Shipping: Whether you are gigging in Mumbai, Delhi, or Bangalore, we ship securely to your doorstep.
Is the "burnt" look painted on?
No! That dark gradient is the actual wood responding to the FireGrain heat-tempering process. It is the color of hardened hickory.
Are these heavy sticks?
They are slightly heavier than a standard raw 5A due to the density, but the Long Taper makes them feel light and fast in the hand.
Is this good for beginners?
Absolutely. The.580" diameter is actually easier to grip for many beginners than thin 7A or 5A sticks, helping to reduce hand fatigue.
Do they work for electronic drums?
Yes, the wood tip is safe for mesh heads. The durability means you won't have splintered tips damaging your mesh.
