Vic Firth American Classic Drumsticks - Extreme 5A - Wood Tip

The Vic Firth Extreme 5A gives you the familiar 5A diameter (.565") with an extra half-inch of length at 16.5", offering more reach and a slightly forward-weighted feel. It's a subtle but meaningful difference—you get added power and leverage without the bulk of a thicker stick. The tear drop wood tip delivers warm, articulate cymbal sounds across every genre.

Made from select American hickory with a medium taper and lacquer finish, the Extreme 5A is versatile enough for jazz, rock, pop, and everything between. It's especially popular with drummers who love the 5A feel but want a bit more muscle behind the stroke. If you've been reaching for a 5B but find it too thick, try these first. Sold as a pair.
