There is no one path - no "right" path. There is only your path. The one that comes naturally and looks nothing like anyone else's. As unique to you as the grain of a hickory tree, this is your musical journey: Go with it. The Vic Firth Terra™ Series drumsticks celebrate the natural beauty our earth gifts us in each drumstick we make. Using a proprietary staining process, the unique and beautiful grains are exposed so that no two pairs are alike. Crafted from premium USA Hickory in Newport, ME, the Terra™ series pays homage to the material that drummers around the world rely on to make magic behind their kit.
