The "default" drumstick

Ike, 30.10.2014

To me, the Vic Firth 5A American Classics are the standard of drumsticks. These are well-balanced, well-matched, great sounding drumsticks. As a drummer of small stature with hands that are on the small size, I find these sticks to be of just the right size, both in length and diameter, and weight for general playing. The bead of the stick also gives a good, clear sound on the cymbals. For slower, heavier songs I prefer a 5B or other bigger model, but for faster stuff and for lighter playing that requires less volume, these are great.

On the negative side, I find that while these sticks hold up well even under fairly heavy playing with constant rimshot backbeats, they're not as durable as e.g. Pro-Mark's equivalent 5A model (though I've never had a Vic 5A snap on me within minutes of starting playing, as has happened with some other sticks). The wood tips also have a tendency to chip, so they may not be intact at the end of a 50-minute set.

The old faithful of drumsticks. Doesn't matter if you're a beginner or a pro. 5A's work for everyone!

Comfortable abd durable

AA, 12.04.2018

These sticks are really durable compared to any other sticks ive tried across many different brands. 1 set can last me up to a year, which is particularly impressive compared to alternative sets of drumsticks. I also particularly like the weight and grip comfort of these sticks, more so than my last Nova sticks.

A great stick to play with

25.10.2016

These are a great classic 5A stick. They last for a ling time even with a hard hitter like myself which is great.
Theyre good value for money as well. Sticks can end up being a big expense of you play regularly like me,

You cant go wrong with these, if you're not sure about what stick to go for, get these and work from these. 5A is the medium of drum sticks - not too light and not too heavy.
