Presentation
Take control of your orchestral dynamics with the Vic Firth Peter Erskine Big Band mallets, the flagship of the Signature Series collection.
Designed and refined by one of the absolute masters of jazz and big band drums, this hybrid model takes on a major challenge: to offer the power needed to penetrate the wall of sound of a brass section while retaining the extreme subtlety required on the cymbals.
Carved from top-quality American hickory wood, this stick features a unique design that fuses the best of both worlds: it cleverly combines the diameter of a 5A and 5B (1.49 cm) neck to offer a reassuringly sturdy grip, without ever feeling heavy.
Its strength lies in its very long neck, a geometry that lightens the front of the stick and creates a totally fluid, almost effortless bounce. At the tip, the teardrop-shaped wooden olive produces a clear, woody, beautifully defined note, essential for swinging the ride cymbal through all the nuances of a Big Band arrangement.
