Vic Firth Greg Zuber Excalibur drum sticks feature a larger-diameter shaft and narrow neck, leading to a small bullet tip. In combination, these design elements allow the player the utmost dynamic control. The shaft stands up to rim shots and accents, while the tips excel in lower-volume passages. As part of the Vic Firth Symphonic Collection, these sticks are optimized for concert and orchestral percussion. This signature model is designed with Greg Zuber, longtime percussionist for the MET Orchestra.
