Vic Firth Corpsmaster Roger Carter Signature Marching Snare Drum Sticks
Description
Vic Firth's Corpsmaster Roger Carter Signature Snare Sticks are a revolution in marching percussion. Designed by world-renowned clinician Roger Carter, these sticks combine the feel of a drumset stick with the durability and volume of marching sticks. The long, sloping taper pushes mass to the back of the stick for remarkable response and flow, while the round tip provides excellent articulation at any dynamic. The result is a stick able to unlock nuance and groove rarely heard in marching percussion.
A Unique Feel for Rudimental Drumming
Roger Carter designed these sticks to have the feel of drumset sticks while retaining the power and projection required for marching percussion. The taper and tip work together to create a wide range of dynamics with a focused sound, allowing drummers to incorporate stylistic elements from drumset playing into marching rudiments and cadences. The added weight and durability also provide a level of response and rimshot articulation ideal for both drumline and drumset applications.
Unmatched Responsiveness and Control
The Corpsmaster Roger Carter Signature Snare Stick's long, sloping taper pushes mass to the back of the stick for remarkable response, while the round tip provides pinpoint articulation. This combination yields unparalleled dynamic control and musicality, allowing drummers to unlock nuance rarely achieved with traditional marching sticks. The taper also makes these sticks ideal for marching tenors, providing added speed and a crisp rimshot sound.
Built to Withstand the Rigors of Performance
As Vic Firth's first signature marching stick, the Corpsmaster Roger Carter model is built to withstand the most demanding performances. The hickory wood and clear lacquer finish provide added durability for indoor or outdoor use. The taper flares out slightly at the neck for extra strength at the point of fulcrum. This additional fortification allows these sticks to hold up during the longest rehearsals and performances.
A Stick for All Applications
Performers will appreciate the versatility of the Corpsmaster Roger Carter Signature Snare Sticks. The innovative taper and tip design make these sticks ideal for rudimental drumming, drumline, percussion ensembles and drumset playing. From DCI competitions to jazz combos, these sticks provide the power, nuance and durability for any musical setting.
