摘要： The present invention is directed to luminous drumsticks. The drumsticks of the present invention permit the drummer to perform visually dramatic drumstick maneuvers and exhibitions without impeding the drummer's traditional responsibility of providing a continuum of timely rhythm to the subject music. This is achieved because the drumsticks embodying this invention comprise drumstick body elements which are configured such that the center of mass of the drumstick is at substantially the midpoint of the length of the drumstick body, and such that either end of the drumstick may function as the drum tip. The ends are also configured such that they are compatible for universal use on all types of percussion instruments. Such a construction of drumsticks permits the drummer to predictably and confidently manipulate the drumsticks for the desired visual, yet timely rhythmic affect. The present invention also contemplates a novel method of manufacturing the same.
