Fic Firth 5B Wood Tip Drumsticks

• Diameter: 0.595” | 1.51cm

  Length: 16” | 40.64cm

  Family: American Classic

  Wood Type: Hickory
• Taper: Medium Taper affects the feel and balance of a stick. A long taper produces a back-heavy feel with more flex and a faster response. A short taper provides more power and durability with a front-heavy feel. A medium taper gives you the best balance between the butt and the tip.

The American Classic® 5B has long been one of the world’s most popular drumstick models.

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.
