Key Features
The Vic Firth American Classic X55A Hickory Drumsticks are a hybrid design, fitting perfectly between a 5B and a 5A - now as an 'Extreme'. Combing the dimensions of their two most popular Extreme drumsticks, you can now integrate the versatility of both with your playing style. An extra 1/2'' in length than the regular 5A/5B sticks, you instantly feel a power increase and your range improved. With more power, a slightly wider than 5A diameter helps you maintain a sturdy grip, also increasing the longevity of the stick also.
A medium taper keeps the rebound balanced and responsive, keeping you in control of your technique and style by transferring just the right amount of energy through the stick to get the sound you want. With the wooden tip, you produce warmer, slightly darker tones that the Nylon counterpart, helping pronounce the low-end and warmth of your drums.
