Tama 5AN – Oak Drum Sticks with Nylon Tip

JAPANESE OAK DRUM STICKS WITH NYLON TIP FOR BRIGHTER TONE AND EXTENDED TIP DURABILITY: The Tama 5AN combines a dense Japanese Oak body with a fitted nylon tip, delivering superior tip longevity over wood-tip alternatives while producing a consistently brighter and crisper tonal response across every hit. OVAL TEARDROP NYLON TIP ENHANCES CYMBAL ARTICULATION AND PROJECTION ON HI-HATS AND RIDES: The oval teardrop nylon tip shape produces sharp, defined cymbal articulation with enhanced clarity on hi-hats and ride cymbals — making the 5AN especially well suited for pop, jazz, studio and electronic drumming. STANDARD 5A BALANCE POINT DELIVERS COMFORTABLE AND RESPONSIVE ALL-ROUND PLAYING FEEL: The 5AN maintains the classic 5A balance profile, providing a comfortable and naturally responsive feel in the hand that suits a wide range of playing styles from light jazz to moderate rock drumming. 14MM DIAMETER AND 406MM LENGTH OFFER MEDIUM WEIGHT COMFORT FOR EXTENDED DRUM SESSIONS: At 14mm in diameter and 406mm in total length, these sticks provide a medium weight profile that rests naturally in hand, reducing fatigue through long rehearsals, studio sessions and live performances. COMPATIBLE WITH ACOUSTIC KITS, ELECTRONIC DRUM MODULES, CYMBALS AND PRACTICE PAD SURFACES: The Tama 5AN works reliably across acoustic drum kits, electronic drum setups, cymbal surfaces and rubber practice pads — a versatile nylon tip stick for beginners through professional drummers.
