Description
Designed with input from acclaimed marching percussion educator John Mapes, the Vic Firth SMAPTS Corpsmaster stick is tailored specifically for multi-tenor drummers who need both power and precision across a full drum set-up. Mapes, whose credentials include 29 WGI medals since 2005 and five World Championships with Chino Hills High School and Pulse Percussion, developed this stick to bridge the gap between the sound he wanted as an instructor and the feel his performers needed on the line.
- Full black nylon tip increases surface contact area for a bold, lasting tone
- Hickory shaft delivers a deep, dark sound with strong rebound response
- Elongated taper and extra overall length add reach and comfort for multi-tenor configurations
- Built to hold up under the demands of competitive and rehearsal play alike
As a longtime Vic Firth artist, Mapes drew on years of teaching experience to combine the tonal qualities he preferred with a feel that performers actually enjoy playing. The result is a stick engineered for the specific mechanics of modern multi-tenor drumming – longer, more comfortable, and built to project.
Whether you’re outfitting a full battery line or looking for a reliable stick that matches today’s multi-tenor demands, the SMAPTS Corpsmaster offers the durability, reach, and sound quality that serious percussionists rely on.
