For light, fast playing. The American Custom series consists of a range of models designed and developed by Vic Firth, musicians and educators. Vic Firth was the first manufacturer to apply the round face concept to drumstick design. All models are made from selected sycamore maple and are characterised by a light, fast play as well as good flex and rebound. The Custom series is perfect for artists who play lighter music or prefer a more powerful stick without a lot of weight.
