Vic Firth 5BN

The Vic Firth 5BN is a sturdy and versatile drumstick for drummers who like to play with a bit more power. With its thicker and heavier design compared to the 5A, this stick offers extra sturdiness and durability. This makes it particularly well-suited for rock, band performances, and intensive practice sessions. The 5BN from the American Classic series is made of high-quality American hickory and features a teardrop nylon tip. This nylon tip produces a bright, sparkling sound on cymbals, with extra definition and articulation. In addition, the nylon tip is wear-resistant, so it lasts longer. Are you looking for a drumstick with extra body, a firm grip, and a bright cymbal sound? Then the Vic Firth 5BN is an excellent choice.

Hickory
Hickory is a hard and strong type of wood that is widely used for drumsticks. The material absorbs shocks well and feels familiar in the hand while playing. This makes hickory a solid choice for intensive use during lessons, rehearsals, performances, and recordings.

American Classic
The Vic Firth American Classic series combines traditional craftsmanship with the recognizable Vic Firth style. The drumsticks are made from carefully selected hickory wood, which, thanks to its high density and limited flexibility, produces a powerful, clear sound. Furthermore, hickory is known for its excellent shock resistance and long lifespan.
