Description

The Acoustic Percussion IC3 is a versatile, double-ended hybrid stick crafted for multi-timbral performance. Developed in collaboration with Ian Cape (Les Misérables, London), this stick combines the solid control of a premium 2B hickory drumstick with the added flexibility of a compressed felt beater and steel rivet at the butt end. Designed for percussionists seeking seamless transitions between rhythmic and textural playing, the IC3 delivers reliable performance across concert, theatre, and studio settings.

Key Features:

  • Double-ended design with snare and timpani/cymbal applications

  • Premium 2B hickory shaft with rounded tip for clarity and durability

  • Compressed felt head with steel rivet for cymbal scrapes, bell trees, and tam-tams

  • Balanced feel and weight for responsive control

  • Ideal for pit musicians, theatre percussionists, and multi-percussion setups

Why Choose the IC3:
The IC3 is a highly practical choice for performers who need rapid, fluid transitions between stick and beater functions without switching gear. Whether you're navigating a musical theatre score, orchestral part, or studio session, the dual-purpose design gives you expanded tonal range with minimal movement. Designed by experienced West End percussionist Ian Cape, this stick is battle-tested in demanding live theatre environments and beyond.
