The Vic Firth 5B "Chop-Out" rubber tip practice sticks are the perfect solution for drummers seeking the feel of a traditional 5B with the added benefit of a rubber tip. Featuring a hickory shaft and an elongated taper, these sticks replicate the balance of a 5B for a true-to-feel practice experience. The rubber tip provides a soft, authentic feel, making them ideal for practicing anywhere—whether at home, in the studio, or on the go.
Not only are these sticks great for practice, but they also create unique timbres when played on drums and cymbals. Designed in response to popular demand from drummers who prefer medium-sized sticks, the 5B "Chop-Out" delivers the perfect balance of performance and comfort. As Vic Firth's Director of Education & New Product Development, Neil Larrivee, says, “Players will be very pleased and satisfied with this new model!"
