Because every drummer’s body chemistry is unique, one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to finding a way to improve grip. Vic Firth’s American Classic® DoubleGlaze sticks are designed to offer a new tactile experiences for the 5A and 5B player. Together with our classic clear lacquer, VicGrip and PureGrit, the DoubleGlaze option offers players even more possibilities to find their own perfect feel. The American Classic® DoubleGlaze sticks are coated with a specialized lacquer formula which creates a characteristically tacky feel. Players with especially dry hands will appreciate the enhanced lacquered surface because it allows them to relax their grip on the stick. The thick DoubleGlaze coating also adds a bit of mass to the stick for a solid feel.
