However, that did not always mean that they had the feel that our performers preferred. Combining the desired sound and the feel became the focus of a product I knew could be a great addition to the Vic Firth catalog.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Firth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44832576045356,"sku":"SMAPTS","price":15.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/0271\/2364\/files\/2000-X_4_b1006ebc-f1a8-46e7-bdf5-f6b8132aa5f4.jpg?v=1702051899","url":"https:\/\/vicfirth.mom\/products\/corpsmasterr-multi-tenor-stick-john-mapes","provider":"Vic Firth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
