  • Great quality
Color: Original Version
Very durable

  • Best overall stick IMO.
Color: Original Version
These are my favorite sticks right now. I have always like the "Xtreme" Vic Firth sticks. I like the extra length they have. I played X5A and X5AN for a long time after using the X55B and X55BN and noticing the they were a little too loud for hat I needed. The X5A's are great and I always have some on hand for quieter gigs but the "NEW" X55A are the best balanced stick for size and weight. However I have ordered sticks and when I get them they seem way too light weight and feel hollow. That is the only drawback to ordering sticks online. ... show more

  • Good all around stick
Color: Original Version
Agree with many that these are a great all around stick. Balance is good and they're comfy to hold. Ok for a medium stick. I prefer the sound of something a little lighter like the Steve Jordans I got.

  • Perfect size
Color: Original Version
Between 5A and 5B with a little extra length. That's the magic formula for me. The wood tips chip before the stick is actually worn out. I will admit, that could be a technique problem on my part.

  • Really good sticks

This size/weight is perfect!

  • Great Sticks
Color: Original Version
A member on our worship team suggested these to me. Gotta say his suggestion was right on. They are like a cross between a 5a and a 7a. They are beefier than a 7 so you don't feel like you're going to throw them when playing but they are not super thick that they are too heavy. I play mostly on a Roland kit and they work really well for that. Have not had a chance to play them on an my Pearl acoustic kit. But I would imagine they would work well there too. ... show more

  • My favorite sticks
Color: Original Version
I've used these sticks for about 15 years on drum kit. They are the perfect size between a 5B and a 5A. I also love the extra length that you get on the X model.

  • Unique comfort in extreme conditions
Color: Original Version
For whatever reason these model of sticks provide for a unique comfort to hands while executing orchestrated rudiments around the drumset from various grip points from the traditional "fulcrum" to chocked back. Also aids and abets in fuller and deeper rim shots.
