The American Classic line combines tradition and Vic Firth style. With bold designs for fuller sound, the Classics are turned from select hickory – a dense wood with little flex for a more pronounced sound. Hickory is also capable of withstanding a great deal of shock, making it highly durable.
The wood tips are deeply back-cut for intensified cymbal response. The nylon tips are similar in size and shape to their wood counterparts, providing enhanced performance and a feel closer to their original wood tip models. Nylon tips are the most durable and brightest sounding on cymbals. Click here to see the nylon-tipped versions of the American Classic sticks.

The self-adhesive gel sticks to the surface of drums, cymbals, and most percussion instruments. The possibilities are endless, by simply moving the damper pad around the surface, you can eliminate any unwanted resonance, and obtain the exact sound the situation demands. The damper pad is washable and will retain its stickiness for years of service.
The Moongel Damper Pad is made from a soft non-toxic gel, and is packaged in a durable plastic container. Drummers and sound studios around the world utilize this award-winning product.
Application Notes: The Moongel Damper Pad can be cut to any desirable size for those situations that call for a minimum amount of damping. For maximum resonance control place one damper pad at 12 o'clock or 6 o'clock, and a second damper pad at 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock.
