Key Features
Warmer, darker sound with less attack. The Vic Firth American Classic 5A Soft Touch Drumsticks feature a felt tip for a softer touch and darker tone. However, you still get a much more focused attack than a soft mallet head. You could use the butt-end for fat snare tones and then switch to the felt tip for cymbal crescendos and a muted tom sound.

The Vic Firth 5A has probably been through more pro drummer’s hands than any other 5A out there on the market. That’s because no one else does sticks to the Vic Firth standard. When other sticks break, the Vic Firth 5A doesn’t even break a sweat. And that’s why everyone knows their name. Less stick-breaking mid-set means more time to groove in style.
You know that drumsticks are more than just pieces of wood for hitting drums. There’s a lot of science to it. Working on a regular basis with the wood science department at the University of Maine, and several other scientific organisations, Vic Firth put the quality of your drumsticks at the forefront of their operation.
