Vater MV-CB1 Concert Bass Drum Mallet (Single)

This innovative mallet showcases a distinctive reverse tapered shaft design that revolutionises how percussionists approach their craft. The unique construction provides enhanced control in the grip area whilst strategically distributing more weight towards the mallet head, creating an optimal balance for professional performance. The grip diameter starts at .750" and gradually tapers to .900" just beyond the gripping section of the handle.

The medium large Puff Fleece mallet head generates a beautifully warm, low, and full sound that maintains excellent articulation across all dynamic ranges. This thoughtful design ensures consistent performance whether you’re playing delicate passages or powerful fortissimo sections, making it an ideal choice for serious percussionists.

Vater officially launched in November 1991, though the family’s drumstick heritage stretches back decades to their humble beginnings crafting bespoke items in the basement of Boston’s legendary Jack’s Drum Shop. Operating from their Holbrook Massachusetts headquarters, the company now produces hundreds of different models and has earned the trust of world-renowned drummers including Chad Smith, Stewart Copeland, and Josh Freeze. Vater’s mission remains straightforward: to manufacture the finest drumsticks and percussion accessories available worldwide.
