Vic Firth F1

The Vic Firth F1 from the American Classic Hickory Series is a unique stick with a small, round tip and a shortened shaft. This shorter, tapered shaft and a bit of extra length provide additional leverage and reach. The gauge is the same as that of a 5A. The round tip helps with accents on the cymbals and makes playing with a traditional grip comfortable. As a result, the F1 is a stick often preferred by jazz or fusion drummers.

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.
