Vic Firth

The Vic Firth American Classic 5A Vic Grip is the hickory 5A with Vic Firth's anti-slip Vic Grip finish. Vic Firth offers it so you can play longer, harder and faster without worrying about dropping a stick.

What sets it apart

  • Vic Grip anti-slip finish
  • 5A size, wood teardrop tip
  • Fewer dropped sticks

Confidence in your hand

When you are afraid of dropping a stick, you squeeze too hard, and a tense wrist plays slower and tires sooner. A finish that grips lets you keep a relaxed hold. That is the point of Vic Grip on the 5A: Vic Firth's best-selling stick, with a surface that stays put even as the night drags on.

Frequently asked questions

What does Vic Grip add to a 5A?
An anti-slip finish: the 5A keeps its measurements and wood tip, but the surface holds better.
Vic Grip or DoubleGlaze: what is the difference?
Vic Grip is an anti-slip finish; DoubleGlaze adds a layer of lacquer with a tacky feel. Both aim for a better grip.
How do I stop my drumsticks from sliding?
Keep a relaxed hold and choose a surface that grips, such as Vic Grip, rather than squeezing harder.
