Buon attacco, alta velocità, la lunghezza permette di suonare più facilmente quando si sta più lontani con lo sgabello dato che se si suona con la ankle motion busogna stare più lontani dal kit.

Amazon Customer: These drumsticks are so much better than the cheaper ones because the lower grip part of the drumstick stays put, where as the cheaper ones come off. This helps with sweaty hands. Recommend!

Bruford74: I have tried all kinds of makes and models and I have ended up with these. It is the perfect stick in every way. The size, the length, the weight, the balance. Do yourself a favor and get the EXTREME 5As by Vic Firth. There’s nothing out there like it. Trust me. Hope they never stop making these.

Robert Sz.: The extra 1/2" just feels so much better in my hands. Got used to the length of Rock, and made it hard sometimes to go back to smaller sticks for some other music styles, missing a stroke here and there. I've been faithful to VicFirth for over 20 years, keep it up! (Bah-dum-rimshot)

Don G.: I really like the Vic Firth X5AVG series of drumsticks. They are 16 1/2 inches long which is a half inch longer than a traditional stick. I have a larger kit, and believe it or not, a half inch does make a difference (I have a pretty good idea, what most of you are thinking). The Vic grip does give me significantly more control over the sticks when my hands start to sweat. I would recommend these sticks to anyone that needs just a little extra reach. The review is based on three criteria, “thickness”, “durability” and “for beginners”. I think those are ridiculous criteria to review these sticks. I have been playing for over 40 years and I consider myself to be an advanced intermediate player. I do have arthritis in my hands, so the Vic grip helps. Stick thickness is a personal preference. Durability, is based on your particular playing style, and as for beginners, sure why not. I also think that it’s for an advanced intermediate like myself. I hope this helps.

JenniferJennifer: These are by far the best sticks I’ve tried. Before these, I used the Promark 747s. I have also used Vater, Regal Tip, Ahead, and Zildjian sticks in the past, and these are the best by far! These have the length, balance, and forgiveness that the 747s used to have before they changed manufacturing process. These usually last me 10 hours of play. In the pictures, you can see that I play the rim a good bit, and they they last long enough for the butt to get seasoned with hand oils. Promarks simply would not last that long- they usually failed at the neck or tip region before I could break them in. The usual place these sticks fail are at the shoulder after extensive abuse. The acorn tips (I prefer the brightness of nylon) give nice warmth, definition, and feel for nice articulate sticking. The longer length (roughly 16-1/2”) give more range options for rim shots and shoulder strikes and provide better balance and feel. No stick is “perfect”- but these are pretty darn close.

Cliente Amazon: Compradas por su longitud para tocar en batería eléctrica. Son un poco pesadas comparadas con las Nova 7b(más cortas) aunque muy bien equilibradas.
