Our best selling 5A Drumsticks just got better – A drumstick that is light weight, fast, and versatile for all musical styles. The Maxx 5A is designed to be a longer and stronger 5A, with more power, reach, articulation and a longer life span. It was also created with our new “hyper-form engineering” Process, where it is annealed to zero before shaping the core, which adds more long term strength. This has enabled Us To add more wall thickness to our 7075 aluminum tubes.
