Vater V-FEXB12RS Front Ensemble Xylophone Mallets (Soft) (Pair)

From humble beginnings in a Boston basement to becoming a global drumstick powerhouse, Vater has built their reputation on precision craftsmanship and unwavering quality. These birch drumsticks feature a soft 1 1/8" round rubber head in grey, designed for drummers who demand both comfort and performance from their gear.

The Vater story officially began in November 1991, though the family’s connection to drumsticks stretches back decades earlier when they crafted bespoke items in the basement of Boston’s legendary Jack’s Drum Shop. This rich heritage laid the foundation for what would become one of the most respected names in percussion.

Operating from their headquarters in Holbrook, Massachusetts, Vater now produces hundreds of different models that have earned the trust of world-renowned drummers including Chad Smith, Stewart Copeland, and Josh Freeze. Their mission remains refreshingly straightforward: to produce the very best drumsticks and percussion accessories in the world.
