Using our patented heat-tempering process, FireGrain transforms ordinary hickory sticks into precision tools of exceptional durability, while keeping the original weight, balance, and feel. FireGrain sticks allow drummers to hit harder, for longer. Hickory That's Harder Than Hell Our revolutionary heat-tempering process transforms ordinary hickory into drumsticks with unprecedented durability. Weight Sorted Kiln-dried wooden dowels are sorted, separated, and batched together based on weight. Precision Cut Using precise methods, raw dowels are cut, shaped, lacquered, and treated, yielding fully-formed sticks. Weight Matched Finished sticks are matched by weight, adhering to the strictest possible tolerances. Pitch Perfected All sticks are matched according to their tuned pitch, averaging a difference of only 9Hz within any model. Designed for Power And Speed A front-weighted balance gives Forward its timeless into-the-drum playing feel, emphasizing power and speed. Charlie Engen "Forward 5B FireGrain sticks are my favorite.

Review: Very comfy and resilient - What a great pair of sticks. Balance and weight is perfect and the resilience of these is amazing. As a metal drummer, previous sticks were being eaten through after about 2 hours use. These are currently on about 18hours and look mildly used. Don't hesitate to get these, they are so good Review: Great for heavier playing! - These are very sturdy sticks. They’re ideal for drummers who like a bit of weight when they play. The colour is beautiful with a nice wood grain pattern. ## Features - FIREGRAIN HICKORY: FireGrain Hickory combines a revolutionary heat-tempering process that transforms ordinary hickory drumdrumsticks into precision tools with unprecedented durability - OVAL WOOD TIP: Oval wood tip provides a dark, warm tone suited for multiple applications - LENGTH: 16" / 406.4mm - DIAMETER: .551" / 14mm - MADE IN USA: All Promark drumsticks are designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA at our Texas facility to the most stringent quality controls in the industry ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B071DFM3PS | | Best Sellers Rank | 561 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 11 in Drum Sticks | | Body Material | Hickory | | Brand | ProMark | | Brand Name | ProMark | | Colour | Mehrfarbig | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 4,218 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00616022131921 | | Included Components | Drumsticks (1 pair) | | Item Dimensions | 40.6 x 2.9 x 1.5 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Classic 5A Fire Grain Drumstick | | Item Weight | 100 Grams | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 40.6 x 2.9 x 1.5 centimetres | | Item weight | 100 Grams | | Manufacturer | D'Addario | | Material | Hickory | | Model Name | Classic 5A | | Model Number | TX5AW-FG | | Model name | Classic 5A | | Part Number | TX5AW-FG | | Set Name | 1 Pair | | Sound Profile | dark and warm | | UPC | 616022131921 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ProMark - **Colour:** Mehrfarbig - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 40.6 x 2.9 x 1.5 centimetres - **Material:** Hickory - **Model name:** Classic 5A ## Images ![Drum Sticks - Classic 5A Drumsticks - FireGrain For Playing Harder, Longer - No Excess Vibration - Lacquer Finish, Oval Wood Tip, Hickory Wood - 1 Pair - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61t1QjfnNSS.jpg) ![Drum Sticks - Classic 5A Drumsticks - FireGrain For Playing Harder, Longer - No Excess Vibration - Lacquer Finish, Oval Wood Tip, Hickory Wood - 1 Pair - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hFOue9TwL.jpg) ![Drum Sticks - Classic 5A Drumsticks - FireGrain For Playing Harder, Longer - No Excess Vibration - Lacquer Finish, Oval Wood Tip, Hickory Wood - 1 Pair - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71f41JaUTrL.jpg) ![Drum Sticks - Classic 5A Drumsticks - FireGrain For Playing Harder, Longer - No Excess Vibration - Lacquer Finish, Oval Wood Tip, Hickory Wood - 1 Pair - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710gKlMhq1L.jpg) ![Drum Sticks - Classic 5A Drumsticks - FireGrain For Playing Harder, Longer - No Excess Vibration - Lacquer Finish, Oval Wood Tip, Hickory Wood - 1 Pair - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81GDVS0ZBuL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between 'classic', 'forward balance', and 'rebound balance'? Buying for son using on snare drum and also electric drum kit.** A: Classic is a standard weight, the forward for me was better hitting on cymbals being a little heaver, and the rebound for me was a lighter weight same size just better bounce on the snare. I'd go for the rebound 5A would be best for snare rebound hits and the electric kit.Regards,Joe **Q: Looking forward to buy a stack of 12. Do you guys have them in 12 pak or any pak.** A: They come to us in bricks of 6. **Q: What size would be best for marching?** A: I have always used 5A for drumset and as an all around stick size for concert snare work. Believe most people prefer a thicker size for marching, like a 5B but its been a long time since I played a marching snare. **Q: I’m a very heavy play are they strong will they break?** A: I haven't tried these yet, but I am a bit skeptical as I am also a heavy player and I have to use the shira kashi oak models to have sticks that last. I like to dig into my ride cymbals and it is hard on the tip of sticks because I like to use both the shoulder and tip on the bell. Rim shots are also required in a lot of material I perform so hickory gets ate up fairly quickly just behind the shoulder. I like how hickory feels and plays but a set was only lasting about 2 to 3 shows. The only 747 set I can find in shira kashi oak is the Neal Peart signature model so that is what I use. (When I started using this same model back in 1992 it was available in a non-signature 747 model.) I typically play 1 show a week and 2 practices a week, playing post punk and contemporary music and a pair lasts me at least 2 months. I have made one pair last as long as 6 months. I typically don't buy signature models but this model I overlook because I am a huge Neal Peart fan. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very comfy and resilient *by M***Y on 21 January 2026* What a great pair of sticks.

Would definitely buy them again. Great colour, tends to vary from light to dark though since I bought one and it was dark, then bought another pair and they were lighter colour, still very cool. Sound great. Good value for money. Easy to handle. ## Frequently Bought Together - Promark TX5AW-FG FireGrain Classic 5A Drumsticks, Oval Tip - Promark ActiveGrip Drum Sticks - Rebound 5A Drumsticks - For Secure, Comfortable Grip - Gets Tackier As Your Hands Sweat - Hickory Wood - Acorn Tip, Black, One Pair - Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/51685904-drum-sticks-classic-5a-drumsticks-firegrain-for-playing-harder-longer](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/51685904-drum-sticks-classic-5a-drumsticks-firegrain-for-playing-harder-longer) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-15*
