Vic Firth

Vic Firth - 5A American Classic Hickory

The Spacedrum can be played by hand or with suited sticks. The technique of playing with sticks is radically different and sensations too. Moreover, the resonance induced by the contact pads and latex attack notes bring a new dimension to the instrument varies depending on the type of buffer used. We have therefore designed several sticks to enable you to understand various playing techniques and types of stamps. The model "dual" functions include a playing technique using 4 tips. During their manufacture the sticks are equipped with soft pads. Buffers toughest independent and inter-changeable are included with each pair of sticks. Note: Be careful, the metal being sensitive to shocks we strongly recommend that you use chopsticks suitable for Spacedrum and play softly.

A musician first and foremost. Prior to conducting the brand that still bears his name today, the late Vic Firth was first and foremost an accomplished percussionist who practiced his art under the tutelage of some of the greatest conductors in the Boston Symphony Orchestra. His first pair of sticks was designed to meet the needs of a piece of music for which he wanted a special sound and feel. Assisted by the world's greatest drummers, the brand's designers have maintained this requirement in order to market - among others - the American Classic series, which includes the basis of models designed to adapt to each hand and, above all, to each musical context. The 5A, the flagship and versatile model par excellence. If one asks oneself the question of the choice of a pair of mallets, one will go for a 7A for a child, and a 5A for an adult. In all manufacturers, and of course in Vic Firth, this model has similar characteristics: a handle that holds well in the hand, a balanced weight, a profile cut for all electric music and a tear-shaped olive that is suitable for all types of cymbals and skins. Undeniable quality. With this 5A or its big sister (X5A, slightly longer and thicker neck) and the thirty or so references grouped in this series, we are dealing with a hyper accomplished production. Is it useful to specify that, at Vic Firth, the quality of the wood is never lacking, that the sticks are perfectly straight, and above all, that they are matched with non-negotiable criteria of requirement and precision? Kitsch aficionados will be happy to know that this 5A also exists in black and... in pink!

The 7A, a thin and light rod. The 7A models are absolutely perfect if you are looking for a light, thin and exquisitely expressive cue. This model is very popular in the world of jazz, but also in funk and pop. All manufacturers, and of course Vic Firth, offer similar characteristics: a handle that fits well in the hand, a balanced weight, a profile cut for all types of electric or acoustic music and a tear-shaped olive that is suitable for all types of cymbals and skins.  Undeniable quality.
