We take a 1-inch thick bundle of sorghum and flip it 180 degrees, bind it with strong thread to form a handle, add a comfortable grip, and finish with sound shaping O-rings. The thicker, stiffer strands from the "stem" on the striking end provide more cymbal attack and louder definition than the Soft Corn, which has the softer "flowering end" as the striking end.

Sorghum vulgare is a variety of sorghum in the plant family Poaceae and is native to Central Africa. This hardy annual, also known as broom corn or broom straw, is a tall grass that forms broad, tasseled, fan-shaped heads that range from 16 to 20 inches. Sorghum has a variety of uses, both functional and ornamental. We use premium "corn" to create some of our Monster bundles.
