Acoustic Percussion GJ4 'Verghe' wire brush (single)

The GJ4 Verghe is the latest addition to the Graham Johns Signature Becken mallet series. The verghe (or brush) complements the range brilliantly and give you the tools for the complete tonal range of suspended cymbal playing.
Used in works such as Prokofiev's 'Peter and the Wolf' , 'Romeo and Juliet' and his 5th Symphony, the Verghe gives a crisp, clean brush cymbal sound but crucially more audibly than regular jazz wire brushes that Prokofiev never intended for these works. Good for contemporary music sounds too.
It's also possible to create a sizzle effect by rolling on the cymbal with soft stick at the same time as resting the Verghe lightly on the cymbal - or just swish quickly from side to side.

Packaged in a handy reusuable plastic tube which is great for storing the Verghe and keeping the wire stands in perfect condition.
