Vic Firth American Custom Swizzle Bolero SD6

Product Description

The Vic Firth SD6 American Custom Swizzle Bolero is a combination stick with a round maple wood tip on one end and a felt mallet head on the other. It's built for players who need to switch fast between snare drum, cymbals or timpani, or from stick to mallet mid-groove for a tom fill or cymbal swell.

The stick is based on Vic Firth's SD2 Bolero, with a felt head fitted to the butt end. The result is a versatile combination stick that saves you from swapping tools when the music calls for a different attack.

Construction

The SD6 belongs to the American Custom series and is made from maple wood, giving a lighter stick than hickory models. It suits players who want a thicker, fatter feel without the extra weight. The tip is round, made of wood and felt, and the stick has a short taper. The finish is lacquer.
