These professional timpani mallets are precision–engineered for 20"–22" drums, featuring a distinctive handle design with a grip diameter of .780" that tapers to .600" before expanding to .790" behind the mallet head. This carefully crafted profile provides optimal balance and control for serious percussionists working with larger timpani.
The Vater story began long before the company's official establishment in November 1991, with the family's drumstick craftsmanship taking root in the basement of Boston's legendary Jack's Drum Shop decades earlier. From these humble beginnings creating bespoke percussion items, Vater has grown into a respected manufacturer operating from their Holbrook, Massachusetts headquarters.
Today, Vater's extensive product range encompasses hundreds of different models, earning the trust of world–renowned artists including Chad Smith, Stewart Copeland, and Josh Freeze. The company maintains a straightforward mission: producing the finest drumsticks and percussion accessories available worldwide, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing excellence.
