Vic Firth Buddy Rich Signature Drum Sticks

The Legendary Stick for Unrivaled Agility and Swing

The Vic Firth Buddy Rich Signature Drum Sticks pay homage to one of the most influential and technically brilliant drummers of all time. Designed as a modified 5A, this stick incorporates Buddy Rich’s specific preferences to achieve a perfect balance of feel, response, and articulation. Crafted from premium U.S. hickory, these sticks offer the durability and classic feel that Vic Firth is known for, allowing drummers to achieve incredible speed and nuanced dynamics.

Key to the Buddy Rich stick’s design is its larger, blended wood tip, neck, and shoulder. This unique profile provides a full, expressive sound on drums and a clear, yet warm, tone on cymbals, making it ideal for intricate jazz patterns, fast rolls, and dynamic orchestral work. The long taper ensures a quick rebound and a back-heavy feel, contributing to the stick’s exceptional balance and allowing drummers to play with effortless agility and an unparalleled sense of swing. Often featuring a distinctive white painted finish, these sticks are a tribute to a drumming icon.
