The Vic Firth American Custom series is a thoughtfully curated collection of sticks personally conceived and engineered by Vic Firth himself. Crafted entirely from select rock maple, this line features light, fast-playing sticks with great flexibility and rebound, offering a lively yet controlled feel that’s perfect for jazz, orchestral, and lighter musical styles.
The American Custom series includes the SD1 General with a round tip, SD4 Combo with a barrel tip, and SD9 Driver with an oval tip – each stick delivers a nuanced response tailored to different playing needs. Their medium taper and lightweight maple construction make them ideal for players seeking a beefier stick without sacrificing speed or finesse.
