There is no one path - no "right" path. There is only your path. The one that comes naturally and looks nothing like anyone else's. As unique to you as the grain of a hickory tree, this is your musical journey: Go with it.

Round tip. Ideal for light orchestral and pit playing.

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.

For the 5B player looking for a brighter sound and increased tip durability.
