- DescriptionFreer Percussion BDLR Cork Core Light Bass Drum Rollers offer a lighter, faster alternative to the classic Freer bass drum roller design. Developed as the cork-core counterpart to the BDFR model, these rollers deliver agility and clarity without overwhelming weight. As a result, they suit contemporary setups and repertoire that demand finesse rather than sheer mass.Materials and ConstructionThis model uses the same carbon fiber shafts and overall core geometry as the BDFR. However, the core material shifts to cork instead of maple and omits the internal insert. Because of this change, the overall weight drops significantly while maintaining structural integrity.The BDLR weighs approximately 195 g, compared to roughly 285 g for the standard BDFR. Consequently, the rollers feel noticeably more nimble and responsive in the hand. Brown handle grips clearly distinguish this lighter model from its heavier counterpart.Performance and Use CaseThe BDLR excels in situations where bass drum color and motion matter more than raw power. Therefore, it works especially well in pieces such as Thunder and Lightning Polka, as well as modern ensemble settings that require controlled roll clarity.Because of its reduced mass, the roller allows quicker response and easier dynamic shaping. Moreover, it supports sustained rolls without fatigue, making it ideal for extended passages and nuanced orchestral textures.Key FeaturesLightweight bass drum roller designCork core with no internal insertCarbon fiber shafts for strength and consistencyApproximately 195 g total weightSignificantly lighter than the BDFR modelBrown handle grips for easy identificationIdeal for contemporary and lighter orchestral repertoireMore InformationFreer Percussion designs mallets and rollers that prioritize balance, response, and musical practicality.
