We are pleased to introduce a new name in our catalog — Kuppmen Music. Kuppmen is the result of a unique collaboration and shared passion of two people: experienced Dutch drummer Wouter Menken and talented German inventor Peter Kuppers.
Their story began with the search for an ideal: Menken, with 30 years of stage experience, was looking for a replacement for wooden sticks, while Kuppers possessed "golden hands" and carbon fiber technology. Joining forces in 2015, they didn't just revive the concept of legendary carbon sticks but perfected it. The brand name symbolically combined the founders' surnames (Kuppers + Menken), becoming a sign of German quality.
Why choose Kuppmen? The main feature of the products is the use of high-tech Carbon Fiber. This solves the age-old problem of instrument wear without compromising playing comfort.
- Sticks last 10 times longer, and rods up to 30 times longer than wooden counterparts.
- Despite the synthetic material, the sticks have balance, weight, and rebound that are as close as possible to classic wood.
- The instrument does not deform, does not change weight, and maintains its perfect shape throughout its entire service life.
Now the most popular Kuppmen models are available in our assortment, satisfying the needs of any musician. We invite you to check out the new arrivals.
