Description

The Vater brand was officially established in November of 1991, but the Vater family history with drumsticks started decades earlier, in the basement of boston's legendary Jack's drum Shop. There, Alan and Ron's grandfather jack Adams, hand turned drumsticks for the drummers like Buddy rich as early as 1956. In the early to mid 1980's, the Vater Brothers began producing private- label drumsticks alongside sticks for Vic Firth and Zildjian. A few years of this LED to the brothers deciding to move their business to a new factory in Holbrook mA. Over the past decade, the Vater family and product line has expanded greatly, introducing innovative products such as the splash stick and acoustic, and welcoming renowned drummers like Chad Smith, Stewart Copeland, and Josh freeze. At Vater, our goal is simple. . . To produce the very best drumsticks and percussion accessories in the world.

  • Durable sticks for big hands
Style: Wood Tip
I've been playing for a few years and in that time had used 5As but found my hands would cramp up when playing for extended periods. I wanted to try some 2Bs to see if they'd be easier on me (I have big hands). I had used other brands in the past but thought I'd try Vader's after a recommendation from a friend. They fit my hand more comfortably. and seem pretty durable so far. The finish is a little slick, but I roughed them up with some sandpaper for a better grip. Will definitely buy again. ... show more

  • Well made, balanced
Style: Wood Tip
I hadn’t used 2b sized sticks in 25 years at least... they are fat ! Or phat ! Well made sticks and pretty balanced . Playing with these and going back to my 7a sticks is an adjustment . The 2b stick are great for warm ups and getting a better tone out of the drums . Highly recommend

  • They're great for lovers of giant sticks.
Style: Wood Tip
I have to start out by saying that I'm a big fan of large sticks. These sticks are as comfortable as an old sweater. However, after playing them for a while, they feel heavier than most other 2B sticks from other manufacturers. Even the Pro Mark Shira Kashi 2B sticks feel lighter and more nimble than these. I believe it's because Vater has a higher moisture content in all of their sticks, which in theory makes these sticks last a lot longer. In the end, these feel like you're holding wooden sticks, instead of the sticks being an extension of your hands. Try them out on a pad at your local music store, and see if these sticks are right for you. ... show more

  • Very poor quality Vater sticks!!!!
Style: Wood Tip
Have loved Vater in their hickory range for 20 years( along with Vic Firth , Zildjian and Regal tip, but Vater were my choice) in the last 14 months I have been shocked by the fairly regular use of poor, lightweight hickory.....so lightweight , that a 2b feels like a 7a !!!!! .My last order from Amazon, was appalling quality ; therefore how could they have passed Vaters' "famed quality control"........ or perhaps the American store was content to pass of junk to me here in Australia........ !!!!!! ( when such low quality should go back to Vater!!!') .....am happy to continue buying from Amazon but never again Vater.....waste of Australian Dollars ( see my account ).Vater's good sticks are, when you get good sticks, great, HOWEVER, too many pieces of junk are being sold by too ,!!!! .
