Product News Gator Frameworks Studio Monitor Isolation Foam Pads Gretsch GP Bass Drum Rail Mount Gretsch Drums has introduced the GP Bass Drum Rail Mount, which combines a classic look with modern features to com- plement the appearance of vintage-style drum sets. The tradi- tional-looking Bass Drum Rail Mount reduces the need for a tom stand and its solid hold is designed to enhance sustain and resonance. The fully-adjustable rail hinge bracket grips a 1-in. knurled bar to ensure secure and precise tom positioning. A geared tom tilter holds a 12.7-mm L-arm to provide additional positioning with memory locks on both the knurled bar and L-arm for a pre- cise, consistent set up. T-rod wing screws and wingnuts complete the look and feel. For more information, contact B&J Music: 800-268-8147, [email protected], www.bjmusiconline.com. Gator Frameworks has released a series of three studio monitor isolation foam pads. Each model – the GFW-ISOPAD-SM, GFW-ISOPAD- MD, and GFW-ISOPAD-LG – provides lift for better sound isolation and enhanced acoustics. Available in small, medium, and large, the stu- dio monitor isolation foam pads improve acoustics by separating speaker enclosures from desktop surfaces. The isolation pads also clean up sound by inhibiting sonic vibrations from resonating into the desk. All models are firmly crafted using high-density foam and designed to fit up to 5-in, 6.5-in., and 8-in. studio monitor sizes. Removable, reversible foam pieces allow speakers to be tilted in a multitude of positions for desired performance.

Promark Classic 747 FireGrain Drumsticks Promark has extended its Fire- Grain drumstick technology to its 747 stick profile. The company says the Classic 747 profile is one of its most popular options, measuring .551 in. in diameter and, like the Classic 5A model, featuring an extra 1/4-in. of length. It also boasts a thicker taper and large oval tip, making it capable of crossing genres and playing styles. FireGrain, introduced in 2017, is Promark’s patented “heat-tempering” process that is designed to improve a hick- ory drumstick’s durability and subsequently allow drummers to naturally play longer.
