Shame on Vic Firth
I have used many years Vic Firth 5A sticks and the've been always the best choice for my drumming. But lately I bought three value packs (total 12 pair of sticks) and the quality of these sticks have been even below medium standards. The sticks have been really fragile and they have broken so quickly.
Less than hour of playing and they've been broke at worst. Also the sticks have been strangely light or different weight. Im really sad cause I love Vic Firth 5A sticks and i would like to keep buying and using them cause they've fit to my rock playing so well over the years.
But now I have to really consider to change the stick brand if they keep making so different quality of drumsticks. The last straw was yesterday when I had really really important show with my band and we fucked up couple of songs all because of the sticks just split into two peaces. I the stick pair was new....

Great value for your money
As someone who used to always go for the cheapest option in drumsticks, I was hesitant to go up to a higher price class, thinking "eh, they'll break quickly anyway."
But after my first try with these sticks, I am never going back to the cheap brands. The difference in maneuverability, feel and especially durability is profound.
I have since also tried some more high-end options, but I feel the standard Vic Firth 5As strike a good balance between quality and cost.
All in all, very good quality sticks for a decent price. 6/5 would recommend!

The go-to stick
The 5A American Classic Hickory gives me the perfect balance and power to play all sorts of music from slow doom to fast hardcore. The attack is fast and clear and the tip is just the right size and form. I go through the whole lot of these when shopping at the local music store and inspect the roots of the tips because that's where they brake if the wood goes the wrong way. In the end the rim shots eat the sticks away at the centre and they finally give up but that usually takes a pretty long time to happen. Quality product!

Peruskapulat
Hinta ja laatu kohtaavat näissä. Tasapainoiset peruskapulat. Sekä akustisella että sähköisellä setillä soitan näillä. Yllättävän kestävät jopa tällaisen halonhakkaajan käsittelyssä. Suosittelen.

The best hickory drumsticks in the world. Allround stick to any style of playing.

Sopusuhtainen palikka
Vertaillessa esim. Balbexiin tuntuu kestävän huomattavasti pidempään. Hyvä pito käteen. Eri pareissa jonkun verran painoeroja.

My standard!
A classic and very basic drum sticks. They feel good in the hands of beginners as well as advanced players. They are fairly durable and last pretty long. The weight differences a bit between different models, but for my use, these work very well. There is not much else to say about these, they are great!
I highly recommend!

An excellent drum stick
Vic Firth 5a has been my standard drum stick for years and these sticks never fail to meet my expectations. I have tried many other brands and models, but I always keep coming back to the Vic Firth 5a.
These sticks offer a perfect balance between feel, power and speed. Practically what takes Vic Firth 5a above everything else is that they are suitable for literally any kind of music. These are agile and soft enough for jazz as well as fast and powerful enough for heavier styles and everything in between.
Vic Firths are also unquestionably the most durable drumsticks that I have ever tried. An excellent drum stick indeed.

Vic firths are my goto sticks in range 5A to 7A. They seem to last a bit longer than the cheaper competitors I've played before.
