Sticks

Vic Firth AJ1 American Jazz sticks offer a fast-playing feel with a 5B-like format and a long, responsive tap. Their hickory olive tear drop ensures a precise, controlled sound on snare drums and cymbals. A pair designed for drummers looking for fluidity, bounce and finesse.

ARTICLE N° 123485
The Vic Firth AJ1 American Jazz sticks are designed for drummers who want to play fast while retaining a real presence in the hand. Their 5B-like diameter gives an impression of solidity, but their behaviour on the kit remains light and very responsive.

The long taper makes them very supple, giving a fast bounce on both snare drums and cymbals. This design makes the sticks feel more fluid, with an immediate response and no extra effort required.

The small, teardrop-shaped olive produces a precise, concentrated sound, while allowing the nuances of the playing to come through. The combination creates a balance between control and speed, ideal for dynamic playing and styles requiring finesse, such as jazz.
