Vic FIrth - Jazz Drum Brushes - Retractable - Heavy Gauge Wire - White Plastic Handle

I bought these as my first pair of brushes and am pleased with them. I've not used any before so its new to me, but my drum teacher was impressed with the way they were put together. As another reviewer said, they have some weight to them but arent overly heavy and this kind of adds to the quality feel. Once they are retracted into the handles there doesnt seem to be any danger of the wires coming back out accidentally and being bent in your stick bag.

Awsome brushes.

Good looking and functional sticks

I recently bought a pair of inexpensive generic brushes from Amazon that started to fall apart within a week (not Vic Firth I hasten to add) and I got a refund and purchased these Jazz wire brushes instead. Having owned some other Vic Firth Heritage brushes for some time (and loving them) I should have done this from the start and realised that cheaper Chinese branded brushes are a false economy. These Jazz Wire brushes are still retractable which makes them easy to carry in a stick bag without snagging, but the handle is made of a sturdy white plastic and the brush wires are stiffer than on the Heritage models. I think the Heritage brushes are best suited to new players as they are more flexible and able to be used across more genres, but I actually really like the stiffness of the wires on these Jazz Brushes and can feel the drumhead and practice pad through them a little more. The handles have a knurling embossed into the plastic which makes the grip better and they are comfortable to play for a long time. I really like these brushes and can happily recommend them and if you are considering a cheaper alternative from a generic brand then I can only offer my advice from experience and say save your time and get something like this instead, they'll play nicer and last longer.

Fantastic brushes, sound great!

A birthday present for my son. One very happy drummer boy!

no problems

Quality through and through

Plastic handle is ok, not the most comfortable, however it allows for rim shots for samba and bossa. Being a medium gauge, double stroke patters work really well, and effective in jazz gallop pattern. Good alternative to have on the side!
