Review: 4.5 STARS - Perfect feel; a bit less durable than other sticks. - 4.5 stars - VERY GOOD with a perfect feel and balance. I stopped using them because I notice they were wearing down and breaking a bit more than other brands (almost one stick breaking per night of 3- or 4-hours variety work), but I am returning to them because they feel better. I wish the bead produced a bigger sound on the cymbal. The bead is good for jazz, but I wish they had a bigger sound for heavier styles. Review: Great quality. Hold up well - Nephew is in a hard rock band. Brutal on the drum sticks! LOL. But Vics hold up well to the abuse. They are all he uses. ## Features - Added thickness for more durability, ideal for rock, band, and practice - Tear drop tip - Crafted from premium USA Hickory ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002F73Z8 | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,160 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #18 in Drumsticks | | Body Material | Wood | | Brand Name | Vic Firth | | Color | Natural | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,945) | | Finish Type | Unfinished | | Item Dimensions | 16 x 0.6 x 0.6 inches | | Item Type Name | Drumsticks | | Item Weight | 0.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Vic Firth Drumsticks | | Material | Hickory | | Model Name | 5BVF-U | | Model Number | VIC 5B BAG | | Part Number | PVF 5B | | Set Name | 5B | | UPC | 750795052677 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 30 days limited. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Vic Firth - **Color:** Natural - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 16 x 0.6 x 0.6 inches - **Material:** Hickory - **Model Name:** 5BVF-U ## Images ![American Classic 5B - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tniDwL4xL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between 5A and 5B?

Obviously I do not play drums...haha..buying for my son..I am not stupid either.** A: The answer is Yes, And you get 2, And very good one I may add.

Hold up well *by E***R on December 17, 2025* Nephew is in a hard rock band. Brutal on the drum sticks! LOL. But Vics hold up well to the abuse. They are all he uses. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good sticks. *by L***F on August 19, 2025* Arrived quickly, sticks were straight, pitch-paired, and felt good to swing. Are now serving well for their intended use. Vic Firth sticks and mallets are top-rate. I would be very disappointed if their quality ever slipped. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vic Firth American Classic 5B - Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks - Evans RealFeel - Drum Practice Pad - Drum Pad - Drummer Practice Pad - Gum Rubber & Neoprene, 2 Sided, 12 Inch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/950745-american-classic-5b](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/950745-american-classic-5b) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
