The Vic Firth American Classic® Extreme 5AN – Nylon Tip drumsticks are designed for drummers who want extra reach, power, and bright cymbal articulation. Featuring a longer profile than standard 5A models, these drumsticks provide increased leverage, making them ideal for louder playing styles, larger drum kits, and dynamic live performances.
Crafted from premium American hickory, the Extreme 5AN offers exceptional durability, flexibility, and shock absorption. The added length enhances speed and reach, allowing drummers to move effortlessly across the kit while maintaining precise control. The nylon tip delivers a clear, cutting sound on cymbals, making it especially suitable for live settings and amplified performances where clarity and projection are essential.
Part of the renowned American Classic® series, the Extreme 5AN maintains the classic 5A diameter while extending the overall length for increased power and projection. The medium taper ensures a balanced feel, offering controlled rebound without sacrificing strength. Whether you play rock, pop, metal, fusion, or worship music, these drumsticks adapt seamlessly to your playing style.
The Vic Firth Extreme 5AN Nylon Tip is ideal for drummers who prefer the feel of a 5A stick but want extra reach and enhanced cymbal definition. Built to Vic Firth’s exacting standards, each pair is weight-matched for consistency and reliability, making them a dependable choice for practice, studio recording, and live performance.
