ProMark Classic Attack 5B Oak Nylon Tip
When to choose it
Pick the PW5BN if you like the dimensions of ProMark’s oak Attack 5B and want nylon at the cymbal. It retains the 0.590-inch diameter, 16-inch length and short taper of the wood-tip PW5BW. Compare the two on the same ride pattern to hear how the tip changes the start of the notes.
If you normally use Vater’s 5B Nylon, this ProMark model has a narrower grip and changes the shaft to oak. Check both differences before choosing it as a direct replacement. Choose by model code if the key requirement is an oval nylon tip in the Attack 5B profile.
