Vater Hickory 5A Acorn Drumsticks

Same specs as our top-selling Los Angeles 5A model but with a classic acorn style tip for a full and articulate cymbal tone.

"This is a definite go-to for a variety of gigs that require clean cymbal sounds, dynamic control, and quick response." - Modern Drummer Magazine

"To me, a 5A is the perfect size stick. It's just one of those things the drumming world got right. Combine that with an acorn tip and you've got what I feel is the perfect combination of size, balance, and articulation. Now that the Vater 5A Acorn is out, you won't find me playing anything else!" -Christian Paschal [Maren Morris]

"The 5A Acorn has the same weight and dimensions as the company’s popular Los Angeles 5A (.570"x16"), but the smaller, shorter tip offers a slightly fuller and more articulate tone. This is a definite go-to for a variety of gigs that require clean cymbal sounds, dynamic control, and quick response." - Modern Drummer Magazine

"From the studio, to a jazz gig, to a rock show, I'm totally covered by the ONE stick that can give me what I need every time...the Vater 5A Acorn." - Sean Winchester
