General
Instead of a good old teardrop tip, these particular Vic Firth American Classic 5A sticks have a barrel tip and offer an extremely balanced feel and an outstandingly clear sound. While the weight, length and the diameter of the sticks has remained unchanged, some of weight has been pulled back towards the rear of the stick to compensate for the shorter, rounder tip. Of course, the Vic Firth 5ABRL drumsticks are also a 'perfect pair', meaning they have precisely the same length and diameter.
