The TBP12 True-Bounce Practice Pad provides an active playing surface of specially selected neoprene for a realistic response. The practice pad is comfortable to play on without the overly-springy feel of traditional gum rubber. Even at the softest volumes each stick note is articulated and can be heard. The result is a more accurate rebound that helps develop control strength and speed making you work a little harder but not too hard when practicing. Enclosed with the true-bounce pad are a free pair of power-sleeve 5A Drumsticks and a teacher-approved rudiment sheet with two fact sheets by Roy burns which cover some warm-up exercises and tuning tips.
