Vic Firth Symphonic Collection General Laminated Birch Snare Drumsticks

£31.19

Inspired by the classic SD1, the Vic Firth General Snare Drumsticks are purpose-built for the symphonic player seeking balanced feel, durability and refined tone. Crafted from laminated birch, this stick maintains the familiar shape and round tip of the SD1, but features a thinner shaft and longer overall length to better suit the demands of orchestral playing. A medium taper brings added control and responsiveness, making this stick a versatile tool for a wide range of concert snare applications.
