Vic Firth RUTE Sticks

Founded by percussionist, educator and businessman Vic Firth, The Vic Firth Company has been setting the standard in the industry since its inception in 1963. Vic Firth drumsticks, brushes and mallets are the choice of top players in all kinds of genres. With precision manufacturing methods and an incredible product range, Vic Firth offers quality you can depend on, no matter what you play.

The German word "Rute" means "branches tied together." Vic Firth Rute sticks consist of a bundle of premium birch dowels, secured in a birch drumstick handle. The handle provides a natural feel and can also be used for back beats, cross rim work, and intricate patterns on the cymbal bell. A movable band allows you to adjust the spread of the dowels and create effects from crisp to splashy.
