The ProMark Classic Forward 5B FireGrain drumsticks feature a patented heat-tempering process that enhances hickory wood for superior durability without sacrificing balance or feel. Measuring 16 inches in length with a .590 inch diameter, these sticks have an oval wood tip that produces a warm, dark tone suitable for multiple playing styles. Designed and manufactured in the USA, they offer consistent weight and pitch for professional-level precision and a lacquer finish for improved grip and reduced vibration.

## Description

ProMark FireGrain is a patented heat-tempering process that transforms ordinary hickory drumsticks into precision tools with unprecedented durability. While keeping their original weight and balance, ProMark FireGrain sticks allow drummers to hit harder and play longer, naturally. No excess vibration, no space age gimmicks, just natural hickory hardened by flame.

Review: Nice sticks - Very nice sticks great balance and feel I recently bought the 5A weight and they are also super nice. The fire grain process is a cool look
Review: The Perfectly Balanced Medium Weight ProMark Forward 5A FireGrain Drumstick Deserves Attention - I have purchased various drumsticks over the years and do have my favorites but the ProMark Classic Forward 5A FireGrain Drumstick I hesitated to buy for some time because of what I thought was its less than desirable aesthetic look and incredibly deceivable heavier look that turned out to be without a doubt a drumstick that every drummer needs to try, own and use in different applications. As described by ProMark it offers a very good mystifying balance but like no other drumstick I can say I own. At first, I couldn’t put my finger on what mesmerized me about ProMark’s Classic Forward 5A FireGrain all around weight and feel, particularly because it had a beefier like diameter in my small hands and I gravitate toward medium or medium thin drumsticks, like Zildjian’s 5A Hickory, which I happen to like very much and Tama’s 5A Oak Drumstick, which also has a nice weight and feel. The ProMark Classic Forward 5A FireGrain Drumstick differs from ProMark’s standard Forward 5A Hickory counterpart because it is so very subtly lighter, giving an intriguing “sense” of being somewhat esoterically hollow yet “hefty” and solid at the same time. The stainless texture provides the necessary grip without compromising the necessary sliding needed for dexterity of stick manipulation. The shorter and wider taper before the tip may be a contributing factor that achieves such favorable outcome with balance and feel. The tip circumference is bigger, which reduces cymbal definition and generates greater volume but also can provide drier texture to a cymbal’s shimmer and tone. The ProMark Classic Forward 5A FireGrain Drumstick is very compatible with drum pads, providing uniquely distinct sounds from various striking points of the stick and pads I so far tested it on, such as Evan’s Real Feel Double Sided Drum Practice Pad, Meinl’s logo black silicone drum pad and Prologix’s Red Storm, Green and Black foam drum pads. The butt of the stick is quite universal, not heavily clumsy and very functional allowing it to be used even as timbale sticks, for a more fuller Tito Puente like sound, a solid and clear “cascara” (the side of the shells) sound. while even using the drum tip for a lighter more defined sound on the timbale heads, cowbells and cymbal. The stick is heralded for its durability but it’s relatively new so the verdict is yet to be rendered on this characteristic. I am now ready to try experimenting with the ProMark Forward FireGrain 7A Drumstick with high expectations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best set of sticks I’ve used in 11 years!!
*by C***S on April 6, 2026*

All around a great set of sticks, not too light nor heavy. Got these sticks as a Christmas present last year and I play a metal drum style. These sticks are still in a good condition some splintering where you hit the rim but that’s expected after awhile.
