Vic Firth VF-7APG American Classic® 7A – PureGrit
Raw Texture, Natural Grip, Classic 7A Precision
The Vic Firth 7APG PureGrit brings a fresh tactile experience to the lightweight, fast-playing 7A profile. Instead of a lacquered coating, these sticks undergo a special abrasive PureGrit processing, leaving the hickory completely raw, natural, and gritty.
This uncoated surface is ideal for drummers whose hands get sweaty, as the texture enhances grip the more you play. The feel is organic and earthy while still retaining the balanced response that makes the 7A a staple for jazz, light combo work, acoustic performance, and quick, delicate sticking.
Natural Feel with Classic Control
Crafted from premium USA hickory, the 7APG features a medium taper and tear-drop wood tip, offering warm cymbal tone, smooth articulation, and responsive rebound.
The PureGrit finish adds slight texture without adding weight, giving players enhanced control while maintaining the traditional 7A nimbleness. Perfect for drummers seeking finesse with a more “connected” feel to the wood.
