The big brush is Samoan, used to sweep away dust etc… and to play BIG percussion!
I got the other pair while I was at the RockShop yesterday getting my Keystep replaced.
They are Vic Firth BROOMCORN and are beautifully quiet… and quite different tonality to wire brushes… I love playing my drumkit, but its a threat to my hearing so these brushes are a nice antidote. Sound gorgeous on ride cymbal, and hi-hat is whisper quiet
