General
If your sticks are constantly flying out of your hands, then allow this pair of Vic Firth X5BDG American Classic Extreme 5B DoubleGlaze drumsticks to solve all your woes, since these specialised sticks feature the solid grip of a new DoubleGlaze lacquer. Meanwhile, you're getting all the feel and playability of a set of Extreme 5B sticks: a hickory build and 0.595 inch diameter. The 16.5 inch length is a little bit longer than a standard set of 5Bs and couples with a medium taper to strike a fine balance between power and finesse, while the wooden tear drop tip ensures plenty of definition.

Vic Firth X5BDG American Classic Extreme 5B DoubleGlaze
Vic Firth expanded its already impressive assortment with four remarkable pairs of drumsticks. These are signature sticks for a number of very different drummers: Keith Moon (The Who), Ray Luzier (Korn), Jen Ledger (Skillet) en Chris Coleman (Stevie Wonder, Prince and Christina Aguilera, among others). Of course, all these sticks are made to suit their individual preferences.
Slippery drumsticks are a thing of the past thanks to the new ActiveGrip by Promark. Thanks to a special layer of lacquer, the grip gets better when the temperature of your hands rises. Handy!
ProMark is launching a great offer just in time for the holidays to promote their Active Grip drum sticks. When you purchase a Promo Pack, consisting of three pairs of Select Balance Rebound 5A drum sticks, you'll get a pair of Active Grip Rebound 5A sticks for free! This offer is valid for a limited time only so act now!
Nothing beats the feel of playing with a pair of hard-wearing wooden drumsticks. If you know what we're talking about here, you probably don't go anywhere near plastic sticks and, just like all hard-core drummers, you take cleaning up all of those tiny chips of wood after an intense session for granted. Heads up if that's you, because Promark have masterfully mixed that trusty feel of wood with extreme durability to craft their FireGrain drumsticks.
Sad news from the United States: Everett 'Vic' Firth, founder of the renowned Vic Firth brand of drumsticks, has passed away at age 85. This was announced on the Vic Firth Company's web site on July 27th, 2015. Everett Firth was a pioneer in the world of drumsticks and mallets, and ever since the 1960s he's been setting the bar for the companies that followed.
