Vic Firth SD9 American Custom® Driver

Product Description

The Vic Firth SD9 American Custom® Driver is a pair of drumsticks turned from select maple, built for the player who wants a beefier stick without the extra weight. Maple is lighter than hickory, so despite the larger diameter and extra length, the stick still feels airy in the hand.

The oval tip delivers a distinct cymbal sound, making the SD9 a favorite among jazz players – but it holds up just as well on rock gigs for anyone who wants a bigger stick without the bulk. The medium taper gives a good balance between feel and control.

The SD9 is part of Vic Firth's American Custom® line, where all eleven models are turned from select rock maple for a light, fast-playing stick with great flex and rebound. The line suits drum set playing, orchestral use and snare technique practice, as well as marching applications for players who want a lighter stick without dropping diameter.

Vic Firth, founded by Everett "Vic" Firth in 1963, has been trusted by percussionists worldwide ever since, offering everything from hickory drum set sticks to brushes, rods and mallets.
