ProMark Finesse 5A Long Maple Drumsticks

The ProMark Finesse 5A Long Maple drumsticks take the classic 5A feel and add an extra half-inch of reach, giving you a little more coverage around the kit without adding extra weight. Made from ultra-light maple with a long taper and small round tip, they are perfect for articulate, dynamic playing on both acoustic and electronic drums, while keeping wrist fatigue to a minimum.

With a comfortable .565 inch diameter and lacquered finish, these sticks feel familiar in the hand but respond with a fast, whippy rebound that suits everything from jazz and fusion to lighter pop and worship settings. The small round wood tip delivers a bright, focused tone on cymbals and drums, helping your ride patterns and ghost notes speak clearly in the mix.

Because they are crafted from maple, the Finesse 5A Long sticks let you enjoy a slightly larger diameter without the added heft of hickory. That makes them a great choice if you like the control and grip of a 5A but want something that feels quicker and less tiring over long rehearsals, gigs or practice sessions.

Every pair is matched using ProMark’s ProMatch process, ensuring consistent weight and pitch from stick to stick. Whether you are stocking up for regular gigging or just want a dependable practice pair for your electronic kit, you can rely on the Finesse 5A Long to feel and sound the same every time you pick them up.

Extended Reach, Same Familiar Feel

The Finesse 5A Long keeps the same diameter, taper and tip as the standard Finesse 5A, but adds an extra 1/2 inch of length. That extra reach makes it easier to move around larger kits and hit distant cymbals comfortably, without having to change your technique or adjust to a different stick profile.

Lightweight Maple for Reduced Fatigue

Constructed from maple, these sticks are noticeably lighter than comparable hickory models. The reduced weight helps cut down on wrist and arm fatigue, making them ideal for long sets, extended practice sessions and electronic kit work where constant repetitive strokes can quickly take their toll.

Articulate Small Round Wood Tip

The small round wood tip produces a bright, full tone that stays clear and articulate across drums and cymbals. Ride patterns, intricate hi-hat work and ghost notes all come through with definition, giving you the precision you need for jazz, fusion and any style that demands detailed stick work.

Consistent Feel with ProMatch Pairing

ProMark’s ProMatch process ensures each pair of Finesse 5A Long sticks is matched for weight and pitch, so both sticks respond evenly in your hands. This consistency helps your playing feel more controlled and predictable, whether you are practising at home or performing on stage.

• Extended 16 1/2 Inch Length - At 16 1/2 inches long, these sticks give you extra reach around the kit while retaining the familiar 5A balance and profile, making it easier to access distant cymbals and toms without over-stretching.
• Lightweight Maple Construction - Maple keeps the .565 inch diameter feeling light and agile in the hand, helping to minimise fatigue during long rehearsals, gigs or pad sessions, and encouraging faster, more relaxed technique.
• Small Round Wood Tip - The compact round tip delivers a bright, focused sound that is highly articulate on both drums and cymbals, ideal for detailed ride work, crisp hi-hat patterns and nuanced dynamic playing.
• ProMatch Consistency - Each pair is weight and pitch matched through ProMark’s ProMatch process, so you get a reliable, even response from stick to stick and pair to pair, supporting consistent performance every time you play.
