Description

The Vater LA Long 5A American Hickory Drumsticks with Acorn Wood Tip are designed for drummers who love the feel of a classic 5A but want extra reach and leverage. Made from premium American hickory, these sticks offer the perfect combination of balance, durability, and a slightly extended length for added power and control.

Featuring a traditional acorn-shaped wood tip, these sticks produce a full, warm tone on both drums and cymbals. The extra ½” length over a standard 5A stick increases your range without sacrificing comfort or feel, while the medium taper delivers a smooth, responsive rebound that works across a wide variety of musical styles.
