The Classic 5B in Striking Black: The Vic Firth 5B Black
The Vic Firth American Classic 5B Black gives you the power and punch of the legendary 5B in a sleek matte black finish. Functionally identical to the natural finish 5B, it’s the choice for drummers who want a harder-hitting stick that looks as aggressive as it plays.
Crafted in the USA from premium American hickory and individually ink-stamped for weight and pitch, the 5B Black is the go-to for rock and hard-hitting players who want their gear to make a statement.
-
Made in the USA: Premium American hickory, hand-selected and crafted to Vic Firth’s exacting standards at their Mill in Newport, Maine.
-
Matte Black Finish: A striking, aggressive look for stage or studio, without altering the feel or performance of the classic 5B profile.
-
Individually Ink-Stamped: Every stick is matched for weight and pitch — no two sticks in a pair will ever feel or sound different.
