Description
The Chord H5AW is a pair of 5A drum sticks made from hickory, a wood we like for its balance of strength and flex. Hickory absorbs shock well, which helps take some of the sting out of long practice sessions and busy sets. The 5A size is one of the most common weights around, so it suits a lot of players across rock, pop and general kit work.
These sticks come with wood tips, which give a warmer, more rounded tone off cymbals and drums compared to nylon. The pair are matched so they feel even in the hand, and the hickory grain holds up to regular use. If you are after a dependable all-rounder for gigging, rehearsing or teaching, this is a sensible choice that will not cost the earth.
We supply the H5AW as a single pair. They sit within our wider range of Chord hickory sticks, so if you prefer a different weight or a nylon tip you can find those alongside this model. Whether you call them drum sticks or drumsticks, the job is the same: a comfortable, responsive stick that does what you ask of it night after night.
