Detail 01
Signature model

1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Vic Firth's Greg Bissonette signature stick, sized for backbeat-driven playing. For drummers who want a signature-model stick without a premium price.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rock and pop drummers playing steady backbeats
- Drummers who want a consistent stick model to restock repeatedly
- Players building a stick rotation on a budget
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Jazz players wanting light brushes or thin taper sticks
- Drummers who prefer nylon tips for cymbal definition
- Anyone needing a specific diameter before committing
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Vic Firth build
Sticks are pitch- and weight-paired, so a replacement pair feels close to the last one.
Detail 03
Sold as a pair
One pair per purchase. Gigging drummers usually keep three or more pairs on hand.
Detail 04
Wood tip
Warmer, darker cymbal sound than nylon, and the tip wears down over time.
Detail 05
Backbeat-oriented sizing
Aimed at driving snare hits rather than light ride work or fast fingertip control.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Sticks are consumable. Budget for replacements, not a one-time buy.
- 02No case, bag, or stick holder included at this price.
- 03Feel differs from your usual 5A or 5B, so expect an adjustment period.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How many sticks do I get?
One pair. Drummers who play regularly usually keep several pairs so a break mid-song doesn't stop the set.
02Are these good for a beginner?
Yes. They're a standard-price stick and the signature sizing doesn't make them harder to play, though feel differs from a generic 5A.
03Wood tip or nylon?
Wood. That gives a warmer cymbal tone than nylon, at the cost of tip life.
04Will these work on an electronic kit?
Yes, though wood tips and mesh or rubber pads wear on each other faster than they do on acoustic heads.
