Overview
A tenor player in a marching drumline gets Ralph Hardimon's signature feel, shortened for quads, in these Vic Firth Corpsmaster sticks. A full-sized hickory shaft and a large barrel tip produce a big, articulate sound, and a medium taper balances rebound.
Sticks on tenors sound bolder than mallets, and this design borrows the feel of Hardimon's snare stick. The finish is described two ways, and no warranty is offered.
Who it's for
Quad and quint players in high school bands and corps get a stick built for field shows. Kit drummers will find the large tip and marching balance unsuited to a drum set.
Pros and cons
- Large tip for a big tone
- Medium taper balances rebound
- Hickory shaft for durability
- Signature Hardimon design
- Finish listed as both lacquer and unfinished
- Pair count not listed
Performance notes
The large barrel tip puts more wood on the head, so each stroke sounds full and clear across the drums. A medium taper gives controlled rebound during fast movements around the set.
