Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks

Product Description

The American Classic® line combines tradition and Vic Firth style. With bold designs for fuller sound, the Classics are turned from select hickory ? a dense wood with little flex for a more pronounced sound. Hickory is also capable of withstanding a great deal of shock, making it highly durable.The wood tips are deeply back-cut for intensified cymbal response. The nylon tips are similar in size and shape to their wood counterparts, providing enhanced performance and a feel closer to their original wood tip models. Nylon tips are the most durable and brightest sounding on cymbals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truely the best., July 25, 2007
This review is from: Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks (Electronics)
I used to think that a drum stick was just a drum stick until I played Vic Firths. I had been so used to using no name brand sticks, and once I picked up a pair of these, I could feel the difference immediately. You pick them up, and before even playing with them, you can tell how much precision goes into these sticks. Not only is the weight of each stick completely equal, the stick itself is so perfectly balanced that it makes playing so much more fun and enjoyable. I recommend these to anyone who plays any type of drum, in any style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Rock Band, February 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks (Electronics)
Yes, I'm a hack.
Yes, Rock Band is the first (and only) drums I've ever played.

However, with the breaking of the original RB sticks I was looking for a new set. Very very pleased with the weight of these (slightly heavier) and response of them. I think my playing improved a bit using these, I seem to have more control and precision. They just "feel" better. Got these in October 2009, and 5 months later, they are still in great shape.

Great value, great sticks. I'd highly recommend them for any of us wannabees. :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic!, October 24, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks (Electronics)
This is a good product, very classic. I bought this sticks because my first sticks were vic firth. The 5A size, from mypoint of view is a very confortable size, because of the light weight and thickness.
