Benny's Vic

Firth Drum Sticks are the result of endless tiny changes in the design

process to get something that felt perfect in his hands. Benny calls his

design a "Frankenstein" of sorts. The small, shortened tear drop tips

are dry on cymbals and very articulate on drums so you can hear every

little note, but that kind of thing is normally reserved for lighter,

thinner sticks. Instead, they're 5B in thickness to get some power and

force in the sound. The medium neck taper gives the stick strength to

deal with lots of rim shots, with more response and rebound than you'd

normally get because length has been taken from the tip. They're made of

hickory , the most popular drum stick material, prized for its strength

and flexibility. They're coated in a paper thin layer of lacquer that

smooths out the grains and feels great in the hands.
