Do you enjoy the natural feel of wood beneath your fingers? The Vic Firth American Classic Extreme 5B PureGrit drumsticks have been designed with precisely this in mind. Their PureGrit finish removes the traditional varnish to reveal a raw texture that provides a more direct and natural feel whilst playing.

This version features the Extreme 5B profile, which is slightly longer than a standard 5B. This extra length provides greater reach and makes certain strokes easier without altering the familiar feel for drummers accustomed to this size. Its 0.595" diameter ensures a comfortable and reassuring grip for a wide range of musical styles.

Made from hickory, this pair offers a good balance between strength and flexibility. Its medium neck promotes a versatile response, whilst the teardrop-shaped wooden olive produces a well-defined attack on the cymbals and a warm tone across the entire kit.

A model that prioritises feel, control and the joy of playing above all else.
