The Vater 5B American Hickory Drumsticks with Acorn Nylon Tip are built for drummers who need extra power and projection without sacrificing balance and control. Made from durable American hickory, these sticks offer outstanding strength, shock absorption, and longevity—perfect for high-volume, high-energy playing.
