Vic Firth VFX5AN Extreme 5AN -Nylon Tip

Martin7392 16.02.2015

I bought these because I'm not the tallest drummer in the world - therefore my reach is also reduced. with the way my kit is currently placed I need the extra length to enable me to reach all parts. It may only be half an inch but it makes the difference. I buy Vic Firth sticks as they have a nice weight and balance to them. They also last a lot longer than other (certainly cheaper but inferior) sticks due to the American hickory wood. The nylon tip is an important feature as it returns a rich cymbal sound. Some reviews would suggest these are more suited to jazz but I find they work very well for rock.

Good sticks

Hugh.C 03.02.2014

Very nice sticks basically 5As with an extra1/4" but it does make a large difference to how you play. I found these a Lot cheaper On thomann than in my local music shop by almost 5 euro And from now on I will only be buying sticks from thomann

these are my preferred main sticks. also 66samus uses them. they are longer so i can reach around the kit easier and have really, really good rebound on any surface especially the ride, they have great weight balance and feel comfortable. the nylon tip sounds great on cymbals and never breaks.
cons: they break a little easier since they are thin and long, the price is a twice more opposed to nova 5an.
Overall my favourite sticks, worth it

5A mit extra Punch

Karbonat Erol 24.12.2025

Zur Verarbeitung brauche ich eigentlich nichts schreiben, da dies gewohnt hoher Vic Firth Standard ist.

Die durchschnittliche Lebensdauer liegt bei Max. 3-4 Wochen bei täglicher Anwendung bis zu 2 Stunden.

Der Stick ist sehr ausgewogen, was durch die zusätzliche Länge verstärkt wird.
Dieser eignet sich erstaunlich gut für Blastbeats und Gravityblasts durch die Gewichtung der Länge.

Im Rock Bereich kann man schöne punchige Rimshots hitten, und dank des schmalen Durchmessers trotzdem sehr dynamisch und flexibel schnell spielen.

Mein Favorit bei den 5A Kalibern.
