Vic Firth 55A Wood Tip American Classic Drumsticks

The Perfect Blend of Power and Finesse

The Vic Firth 55A Wood Tip American Classic Drumsticks offer a unique balance that sits perfectly between the popular 5A and 5B models. Designed for drummers who find the 5A a bit too light and the 5B a bit too heavy, the 55A provides a comfortable and versatile option. Crafted from select hickory, known for its resilience and classic feel, these sticks deliver consistent performance and durability for a wide range of musical styles.

The tear-drop shaped wood tip provides a warm, full sound on drums and clear articulation on cymbals, making it adaptable for everything from rock and pop to jazz and orchestral settings. The slightly thicker diameter and moderate length of the 55A, combined with its well-balanced weight, give drummers a bit more power and projection than a 5A, without sacrificing the quick response and nuanced control. It's an excellent choice for those seeking a "goldilocks" stick – just right for many playing situations.
