Vic Firth X5AN American Classic Extreme 5A Nylon Tip Drumsticks - 6 Pack

MORE REACH AND POWER WITH THE SAME 5A FEEL: Extreme 5AN adds half an inch for 16.5 inches total, giving you greater reach, more leverage, and stronger power per stroke

BRIGHTER CYMBAL SOUND THAT OUTLASTS WOOD: Nylon teardrop tip delivers crisp cymbal attack, resists chipping far better than wood, and stays locked to the shaft via tip-lock

PLAY LONGER WITH LESS HAND AND WRIST FATIGUE: Select hickory absorbs shock and vibration on impact before it reaches your hands, so you stay comfortable and in control through long sessions and heavy performances

IDENTICAL FEEL IN BOTH HANDS ACROSS EVERY PAIR IN THE PACK: Every pair is computer-sorted by weight and pitch so all 12 sticks perform identically from pair one to pair six without any adjustment between pairs

READY-TO-PLAY BUNDLE: This bundle includes 6 pairs of drumsticks for practice and an Austin Bazaar polishing cloth to keep your sticks, shells, and hardware clean and protected after every session

The Vic Firth American Classic Extreme 5AN delivers the trusted 5A feel with an extra half inch of shaft length, bringing the total to 16.5 inches for greater reach, leverage, and power across your entire kit. The 0.565 inch diameter and medium taper remain unchanged, so the balance is immediately familiar while the performance is noticeably stronger. The nylon teardrop tip produces a brighter, more defined cymbal sound than wood, resists chipping over time, and stays locked to the shaft through Vic Firth's tip-lock process. Every stick is turned from select American hickory for natural shock absorption that protects your hands and wrists across extended sessions, and all twelve sticks in this 6-pair pack are computer-matched by weight and pitch for identical feel and response in both hands.
