Vic Firth American Custom Bolero Maple Drumsticks - SD2 - Pair

Elevate Your Precision and Control Experience the perfect blend of a substantial grip and effortless agility with the Vic Firth American Custom SD2 Bolero drumsticks. Engineered specifically for standard orchestral performance, pit theater, and nuanced jazz, the SD2 Bolero is a legendary choice for percussionists who demand extreme dynamic control without sacrificing a comfortable handful.

Premium Rock Maple Construction. While standard hickory sticks can feel heavy and fatiguing over long sessions, the SD2 Bolero is turned from select North American rock maple. This lightweight wood gives you a broad, thick diameter under your fingers while remaining remarkably nimble. The result is a lightning-fast response, a breathy tone, and less hand strain during complex passages.

Articulate Accents and Effortless Rebound. The SD2 features a unique short taper that shifts the stick’s center of gravity forward, allowing the weight of the stick to do the heavy lifting for your rolls and rudiments. Paired with a small, round wood bead, it delivers an incredibly crisp, dry, and woody click on cymbals alongside a clean, pinpoint articulation on snare drum heads.
