Introducing ProMark & ProMark Classic

Founded over 65 years ago, ProMark Drumsticks prides itself in its unique style and innovation. Beginning this Autumn, ProMark is thrilled to announce a brand refresh and updated portfolio introducing two new brand pillars: ProMark and ProMark Classic.

The ProMark pillar represents the leaps and bounds made to bring the brand up to D’Addario’s uncompromising standards of innovation and quality. But it’s about more than just streamlined processes and consistency standards. It’s also about exploration, experimentation, and pushing the boundaries of what a drumstick—and a drummer—can be.

The ProMark brand pillar will include two lines, Rebound & Finesse.

ProMark Classic is a celebration of ProMark’s rebellious spirit—one that will both excite ProMark neophytes and reignite the youthful passion of our most loyal longtime players. By reintroducing some of the brand’s iconic visual equities and marrying them to the most essential models in the portfolio, ProMark Classic will pay homage to the bold, original identity and ideals first set forth by Herb Brochstein back in 1956. This new brand pillar will feature two lines, Forward & Attack.

Alongside the brand refresh, ProMark has established a new line-logic that simplifies and better aligns the needs of different player segments. The simple and intuitive nomenclature is both easy to navigate and reflective of the unique performance characteristics drummers want to choose from.
