Vic Firth VF-MJC5 Modern Jazz Collection 5 Drumsticks

Vic Firth VF-MJC5 Modern Jazz Collection – Model 5

Ultra-Warm, Dark Tone for Intimate Jazz Performance

The Vic Firth MJC5 Modern Jazz Collection mallets are voiced for the softest, darkest response in the series, making them ideal for intimate jazz settings where subtlety and blend are essential.

Featuring yarn-wrapped heads tuned for maximum warmth, they produce a rounded, mellow tone with minimal attack—perfect for ballads, soft comping and lyrical vibraphone passages.

Exceptional Control at Low Dynamics

Designed to allow notes to bloom naturally, the MJC5 excels at quiet dynamic levels and sustained rolls without edge or brittleness.

Balanced birch shafts provide a comfortable, responsive feel, supporting expressive phrasing and precise control when playing delicately within small combos or acoustic ensembles.
