Here's What Vic Firth Say About the Live Wires Brushes

A retractable wire brush featuring heavy gauge wire with a small, round bead on the tip of each strand. For an added sharp snap on cymbals and drums.

Details

Featuring a small round bead on the tip of each wire, the Live Wires retractable brush is a revolutionary new brush that allows the player to create much louder brush sounds than ever before! Manufactured with a unique and proprietary method, the bead and wire are produced from a single strand which eliminates parts that could come loose over time. Heavy gauge wire improves the balance and rebound, and smooth rubber makes the handle comfortable and easy to grip. The retractable pull-rod allows for a variety of settings.

  • Features heavy gauge wires with an added bead on each for more volume and snap around the kit
  • Retractable brushes with a smooth grip in an eye-catching finish
