Product Spotlight: Colin McNutt Signature Stick

Colin McNutt describes the unique characteristics of his signature Vic Firth drumstick!
Colin McNutt is the Percussion Caption Supervisor and Arranger for the ten-time DCI World Champion Cadets Drum & Bugle Corps. Colin has a strong history in percussion instruction. He arranged music and instructed for the Star of Indiana of Bloomington, Ind., the Glassmen of Toledo, Ohio, and the Crossmen. He also took his talents to the stage, writing and teaching for the popular production "Blast!"

[@calebduke8948]

I watched this expecting to know a lot about the stick... But I was to distracted on how those tenor covers are to small for those drums and the drum sticks out of the bottom of the cover
