Vic Firth 5A Nova Natural Wood Tip 4-stars Reviews
Solid Drumsticks
Bought this drumsticks for practice and really loved the solid feel they have.
Very good pair for the price!
A cheap substitute for the American Classics
These were half the price and made by the same company as the American Classics, so I thought I'd give them a go. Not bad, but not as good as the more pricey alternative.
Slightly worse balance, different tip shape (that's just down to preference), and slightly worse wood quality.
Still, very, very good sticks considering the price, I use a pair for when I'm practicing off the kit.
Best bang for the buck
These are my go-to sticks I use when rehearsing and playing live. They feel great - not too rough or slippery. These sticks are reasonably balanced and the weight is not too light, which I prefer.
From what I have experienced, these sticks are just as durable as higher-priced drumsticks. I have had issues with sticks breaking in the past, which is probably connected to my subpar playing technique. Now although these sticks are quite cheap, they last relatively long compared to other models.
In general, I find these sticks to be the best with regards to their price. I would suggest there is nothing better in this price range.
Cheap & Fair
Not exactly the best quality, but for the price they are more than okay! They're not as heavy as their more expensive counterparts, and they chip a bit more easily, but I've played with them live & in practice and a 12-pack lasted me a bit more than a year. All in all, a surprisingly good product for the price.
Super Nova.
The Nova 5A is just a great value stick for everyone!
