Vic Firth

collapse expand iconDescription

Vic Firth American Heritage dum sticks are sized like the popular American Classic models, but are crafted in maple rather than hickory for greater rebound and flex. This drum stick series gives drummers the feel of their favorite Vic Firth American Classic sticks but with a lighter and more airy sound-especially on cymbals.

AH7A
The AH7A drum stick has a teardrop tip and is great for music with a light touch.

AH5A
The Vic Firth AH5A stick has a teardrop tip that combines with maple for rich cymbal sounds.

AH5B
The AH5B stick has a teardrop tip with a medium stick that still produces sweet cymbal sounds.

    Hands down the best 5b stick i've tried so far, the maple wood makes it way lighter than hickory, and it feels soft in my hands when I play, and im a relatively hard hitter so it's very durable.

  • Yes I will buy this product again!

    All in all great! For yrs I used 5b traditional w acorn tip,,,loved em. Not sure they are still being offered. The weight felt good. I now wish I had ordered 6 or more pair to see how close they are. When you buy online there's no rolling sticks on the glass top display case in every music store. Mine were almost perfect! It's so important to hv straight sticks! TY& Best for the great products~

    I have played with many drum sticks and after about 2 songs they break so I changed to vic firth and I�ۡ���ve been using them for about 7years now. The quality of vic firth is the best. They have different sizes for ever age and style of player!!
