The Timber Drum Company is a small shop dedicated to crafting American-made instruments. The Slapstick, sometimes called a Whip, is a special effect percussion instrument that mimics the sharp sound of cracking a whip. The design allows you to play the Slapstick with one hand while keeping your other hand free to play other instruments. It is made of solid Tennessee Hickory, which produces a sharp attack and is also extremely durable. (Most drumsticks are made of hickory.) Add this unique American-made instrument to your collection and be ready with the perfect effect for the Christmas standard “Sleigh Ride,” Benjamin Britten’s “The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra,” Aaron Copland’s “Rodeo (Buckaroo Holiday) Symphony No. 3,” as well as many other classic and pop pieces. Made in the U.S.A. 18-inch Overall Length.
