Big_John Registered: 02/19/03 Loc: Kentucky	If it is for the marching arena, the American Custom series is not the way to go. Since you are a fan of the Firth line, I suggest the Corpsmasters M61. The Lexan mallets are loud, so make sure that the players wear 5-10 dB ear plugs, otherwise, damage will occur. Also, buy a few extra pairs, as the fiberglass might break in the middle of the season. _________________________ Big John Bullitt Central HS '99-03: Pit, Bass, Snare/SL Univ. of Kentucky '03-04: Cymbals, Bass Nine Southwind '04: Lead Vibes Since 2005: I've been pursuing a career as a conductor and an operatic baritone.
