They feel very consistent in weight and balance, which makes them reliable for both practice and performance. The durability is strong, and they hold up well under extended playing without chipping or wearing down too quickly. The grip and feel are comfortable, giving good control and response across different playing styles. Overall, these have become my go-to sticks. They feel solid, reliable, and well-made, and they perform consistently every time I use them.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between Nylon and wood tips?**
A: Nylon has more ping on cymbals, less wear and tear on tips, but some say tips are prone to flying off a lot.
Wood has better rebound on toms and snare, more control over sound, has more wear and tear if you play hard.
I prefer Vic Firth Metal (wood tip) for practice and 5A or 5B (wood tip) for playing. 
The 7A is perhaps better size for small kids, would not recommend for adult or teenager even with small hands.

**Q: Are these Hickory?**
A: Yes these are hickory

**Q: Will these be good for a beginner band drummer?**
A: Yes, they will be good for a beginner drummer. But please check with the instructor first before buying this size of drumsticks. Some band instructors want a different size like 5A or 2B. Thanks!

**Q: What are best for 14 year old beginner?**
A: 5A is what I have used for many years now, but learned in marching band with 2B, and later went to 7A for concert band, jazz band and orchestra. Choose a medium thickness that fits the child's grip well and maybe try 2 or three sizes to compare at the music store

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The only sticks.
*by A***T on May 24, 2025*

I was trying to order 5bs but I ended up with 2b. I have meaning to try some 2b sticks from VIc FIrth for a while. They feel great perfectly balanced. I am still trying to figure out how to get the tones I like out of my drums with the added mass and so far it sounds much differant than the 5bs I was playing. Great sticks. You cannot go wrong with Vic Firth. To me they are the only stick.
