Vic Firth Pair of Sticks VF 5A
The American Classic® line combines tradition and Vic Firth style. With bold designs, 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 tips are deeply back-cut for intensified cymbal response.

Note: The "taper" affects the feel and balance of a stick. A long taper produces a weighted feeling in the back with more flexibility and a quicker response. A short taper provides more power and durability with a front-heavy feel. A medium taper provides the best balance between the ends.
For nearly 60 years the Vic Firth Company has focused on developing and manufacturing drumsticks, beaters and some of the most popular percussion accessories, with great durability, playing feel and sound options, in the widest variety of genres and styles .
Run by drummers, Vic Forth knows that each pair of hands that hold a “Vic” stick is different, so having the widest range of products to allow you to find that “perfect pair” is important for the musician and the manufacturer . Having an accessory you can trust allows the musician to feel comfortable and unlock a different level of performance.
