Vic Firth Corpsmaster Multi-Tenor Hybrid — Tom Aungst
The Tom Aungst Corps master Hybrid Multi-Tenor Stick blends the feel of a traditional tenor mallet with the sound of a snare stick. Field tested with the 2007 DCI Silver Medalist Cadets Drum & Bugle Corps, this unique product is very well balanced and creates a great quality of sound that blends beautifully with the snare and bass voice within the marching ensemble.

The “rim-shot zone” is perfectly placed just before the pronounced taper which creates an excellent rebound. With the perfect tip shape and size, this product assists the player in getting around the drums easily while producing a great sound. Additionally, the Tom Aungst Tenor Hybrid is a great choice for Indoor Marching where assistance in achieving clarity is a decided plus! Corps master Multi-Tenor Mallets and Stick.
