Brushes that feel light in the hand
Vic Firth highlights the Heritage's light gauge wire, which it calls fast and easy to play. The smooth rubber handle sets it apart from the Legacy LB, which has a wooden handle. Retracted, the wires slide into the handle, which protects them in the bag. In the range, the Jazz WB has a medium gauge wire instead.
