Vic Firth Nova 5B Nylon Tip Drumsticks

Vic Firth's Nova Series sticks are among the best you can buy on a budget. They're made from the popular hickory, which makes them strong, low flex, durable and incredibly long lasting.

The wooden-tipped models have their end shaped to get the best possible sound out of the cymbals. Nylon tips have the same shape, but offer a brighter sound, longer life, and greater gentleness to the blanks.
