collapse expand iconDescription

Drummers searching for sticks that match their exacting standards need look no further. In collaboration with the inimitable Benny Greb, Vic Firth has developed signature drumsticks tailored to the master drummer's preferences for responsiveness, articulation and endurance.

Optimal Balance and Control

The Benny Greb Signature sticks feature a medium taper and shortened tear drop tip that provide focused cymbal sound, rebound and control. The medium taper places the shoulder in an ideal spot for durability while the abbreviated tip increases response. The result is a stick that feels familiar yet helps drummers achieve a wider range of sounds with precision.

Built to Last

Constructed from hickory, a wood prized for its strength and rebound, the Benny Greb Signature sticks are built to withstand the demands of drummers who push their gear to creative extremes. The lacquered finish protects the wood while retaining a smooth, comfortable feel. You can pound out complex rhythms and explore new techniques without fear of breakage.

Personal Touches from a Pioneer

The Benny Greb Signature sticks reflect the artist's style through distinctive touches like green ink and a label with Greb's signature. Greb collaborated closely with Vic Firth to develop sticks tailored to his vision, resulting in a product that meets and surpasses expectations. Drummers who share Greb's passion for innovation and mastery can now benefit from that collaboration.

    I absolutely LOVE these sticks! After searching for years to find the right sound, I think these are it. A perfect cross-stick sound, great cymbal definition, with enough body to really feel the room but light enough to play small venues. Highly recommend.

  • Would definitely buy this again. Was gift but just right

    I always have a problem with sticks because I feel like when they're too thin, I end up gripping harder unintentionally and when they're too thick they play much different. This is the perfect stick for me. Feels like a 5b, plays like a 5a. The best of both worlds in my opinion. If that sounds like something you're interested in, buy these. You wont be disappointed about it.
