Vic Firth American Jazz 3

The Vic Firth American Jazz 3 drumsticks are a long-time favourite among players who value precision, finesse and musical control. Designed with jazz and expressive playing in mind, they offer a beautifully balanced feel that’s just as comfortable on a ride cymbal as it is across snare, toms and hi-hats.

Featuring a slender profile and long taper, the Jazz 3 delivers excellent rebound and sensitivity, making it easy to articulate ghost notes, dynamic accents and flowing patterns. The teardrop-shaped wood tip provides a warm, defined cymbal sound with plenty of clarity — ideal for nuanced ride work and detailed playing at lower to medium volumes.

While firmly rooted in jazz tradition, the American Jazz 3 is far from a one-trick stick. Its light, agile feel also suits fusion, funk, acoustic sessions and any style where touch and control matter more than brute force. The balance feels natural in the hand, encouraging relaxed technique and long, fatigue-free playing sessions.

Crafted from premium hickory, these sticks offer excellent durability while retaining that classic Vic Firth consistency players rely on. They’re often a go-to recommendation when drummers are looking to refine their touch or move toward a more expressive playing style.
