"Good"

— Uriah H. (4/5)

a heavier stick (5B extreme) is good for practice

"I am very please with the 2 sets of 5B VIC FIRTH drum sticks. I recently had a chance to play again and got excited about returning to basics, to rudiments, tempo - I also got a Korg KDM-3 metronome (fantastic). The somewhat longer, heavier sticks, I hope, will act to strengthen my wrists. I can then move to lighter sticks and play with greater precision and force, if needed. Wish me luck!

I would buy this product again and again

"I am using the Extreme 5b Vic Firth sticks for many reasons: Quality of the wood. Density of the wood. Very reliable sticks. Always matching pairs. Quality of the varnish. Perfect size and weight for me to play any style, loud or soft music. I also pike the shape of the tip and bottom. After 57 years of playing drums, this sticks are my only choice now and it's been many many years that nothing else can match my need"

Using these sticks for years

"The Extreme 5B is my go to because of the extra reach and amazing action. I feel these sticks improved my confidence to play harder and faster. Balance is spot on and they really take the abuse."
