Combines the dimensions of a 5A and 5B. A great choice when a 5B is just a little more stick than required.

SKU:55A

• With a diameter that sits right between the 5A and 5B, The 55A is the perfect choice for when a 5B is just a little more stick than is required.
• The American Classic line combines tradition and Vic Firth style, turning bold designs from select hickory — a dense wood with little flex for a more pronounced sound. Hickory is also capable of withstanding a great deal of shock, making it highly durable. The tips are deeply back-cut for intensified cymbal response.
• Sized right between a 5A and a 5B
• Great mid-sized option for all-around playing
