The Vater Sugar Maple 5A Nylon Tip Drum Sticks are now available with us at Graham Russell Drums.

Manufactured from high-quality Sugar Maple, these drumsticks offer a classic 5A profile with a lighter, more responsive feel compared to traditional hickory models. Maple construction reduces overall weight while maintaining flexibility, allowing for increased speed and reduced fatigue during extended playing. This model features a short to medium taper and an oval nylon tip, providing a balanced rebound with enhanced cymbal clarity and articulation. At 16" in length with a 0.570" diameter, they deliver a familiar, versatile feel suited to a wide range of playing styles.

These sticks deliver a light to medium weight response with excellent control and definition. The nylon tip produces a bright, clear cymbal tone with a focused attack, while the maple construction allows for fast, fluid playing with minimal effort. The overall feel is balanced and responsive, making them particularly well suited to styles including pop, rock, funk and lighter dynamic applications where speed, articulation and comfort are key.
