Pro Mark 5B drumsticks for heavier playing styles
The Pro Mark TX5BN is a 5B drumstick for drummers who want a little more mass than a 5A without moving up to a heavier 2B. With a 16-inch length and .590-inch diameter, this drumstick sits in a familiar general-purpose range while aiming at players with a stronger touch in rock, pop and punk.
The oval nylon tip produces a brighter, more clearly defined sound. That helps your attack cut through more clearly while keeping articulation audible across different uses on drum kit and cymbals.
Build and response of the TX5BN
The Pro Mark TX5BN uses hickory, a popular drumstick wood because of its resilience, responsiveness, durability and classic feel. Its medium taper, the gradual narrowing from shaft to tip, keeps response and rebound balanced while you play.
The Natural Lacquer finish gives the stick its natural look. Pro Mark designs, engineers and manufactures these drumsticks in the USA with strict quality control, which suits drummers looking for consistency in practice, lessons or stage use.
