Longer than standard 7A but not as thick as 5B, so great balance 👍🏻 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great drum sticks X55A *by M***N on 30 January 2023* I’ve been through so many different brands and stick sizes. Vic Firth just has that brilliant quality I’m looking for at a price between £10-12. Previous I used a 5A extreme stick, slightly longer than a 5A to give more power and lightweight for quick hands. Although after many gigs being slightly heavy on the hi-hat I found they lasted ok but I needed them to last a little longer. Tried the extreme 5B and found them too heavy and big/thick, so went for the in between stick X55A. Perfect, my go to stick. Still lightweight, more durable and great price. You won’t be disappointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/60144436-vic-firth-american-classic-extreme-drumsticks-x55a-american-hickory-wood](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/60144436-vic-firth-american-classic-extreme-drumsticks-x55a-american-hickory-wood) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
