Vic Firth 5B Nylon Tip American Classic Terra Drum Sticks

The Powerful 5B, Enhanced with a Distinctive Earthy Feel and Nylon Tip Durability

The Vic Firth 5B Nylon Tip American Classic Terra Drum Sticks take the popular and robust 5B model and give it a unique, earthy aesthetic and feel, while maintaining the bright articulation and durability of a nylon tip. These sticks are crafted from select hickory, known for its resilience and classic response, ensuring the same trusted performance as the standard American Classic line. The "Terra" finish is a special earth-toned, often textured, application that provides a distinctive look and a slightly different tactile experience, appealing to drummers who prefer a more natural, subtle grip compared to slick lacquered sticks.

The 5B's substantial feel and balanced design make it a go-to choice for drummers who need a bit more volume and presence than a 5A, making it excellent for rock, concert band, and various other genres. The durable nylon teardrop tip is a key feature, producing a brighter, clearer, and more defined sound on cymbals, making ride patterns incredibly articulate and cutting through loud mixes. On drums, it delivers a sharp, clean attack. Unlike wood tips that can chip or fray, the nylon tip maintains its shape and sound consistently, ensuring reliable performance gig after gig. The Vic Firth 5B Nylon Tip American Classic Terra sticks are an ideal choice for drummers who prioritize a powerful feel, bright cymbal sounds, superior tip longevity, and a unique visual and tactile experience.
