Lee Beddis
Model: ( SLB )

With a drum corps career spanning three decades and a reputation for building great programs quickly, Lee Beddis is one of DCI’s most sought after percussion authorities. He currently serves as Percussion Caption Arranger/Supervisor for the Carolina Crown Drum and Bugle Corps, finishing with a silver medal at the 2009 DCI World Championships. Additionally, Lee is the Battery Caption Head/Arranger for the WGI Independent World Class percussion ensemble, Redline. When he is not teaching, Lee is in demand as a highly-regarded judge and clinician across North America.

The Lee Beddis Signature Stick has been reengineered for better feel and playability while retaining the ability to produce a very full sound from the drum. With a new clear finish, the stick features a medium tear drop tip and medium taper for clarity, projection and comfort.

“I am proud to be part of the Vic Firth family for so many years now,” says Beddis. “They are a first class organization that is interested in me, my students, ensembles and sticks. When I came up with a way to make my model easier to play while maintaining the quality of sound, they were so very happy to work with me to make it happen! Vic Firth is number one at what they do and always working towards improvement!”
