Vic Firth American Custom SD10 Swinger Drumstick

Light Feel, Articulate Response, and Ideal for Jazz and Swing

The Vic Firth American Custom SD10 Swinger Drumsticks are specifically designed for drummers who prefer a light, fast stick with exceptional articulation and rebound, making them particularly well-suited for jazz, big band, and swing music. As part of Vic Firth's American Custom series, these sticks are crafted from select rock maple, a material chosen for its lighter weight, natural flexibility, and ability to produce a warmer, more subtle sound compared to hickory.

The SD10 Swinger features a thin profile and a relatively long taper, contributing to its quick response and effortless rebound. Its key characteristic is the small, round wood tip, which is precisely engineered to provide incredibly clear and defined cymbal articulation, allowing ride patterns to sing with clarity. On drums, it delivers a focused and delicate attack, perfect for intricate ghost notes and nuanced dynamics. If you're seeking a light, responsive stick that truly enhances your touch and musicality in lower-volume settings or intricate jazz contexts, the Vic Firth SD10 Swinger is an excellent choice.
