Vater VH3ALW American Hickory Wood Tip Drumsticks (Light) (Pair)

The Vater Fatback 3A Lite brings the beloved characteristics of the extremely popular 3A model into a more compact 7A-sized grip that's perfect for drummers seeking versatility without compromise. This scaled-down version features a quick style taper that provides a solid feel whilst maintaining lighter weight due to its smaller dimensions. The well-rounded design works brilliantly across a wide variety of settings and musical styles, producing a fuller sound than you'd typically expect from a stick with smaller specifications, complemented by the clean tone that comes from its rounded barrel tip shape.

Vater's official establishment came in November 1991, though the family's drumstick heritage stretches back decades earlier when they crafted bespoke items in the basement of Boston's legendary Jack's Drum Shop. Operating from their headquarters in Holbrook, Massachusetts, the company now produces hundreds of different models and counts world-renowned drummers like Chad Smith, Stewart Copeland, and Josh Freeze among their endorsers. At Vater, the mission remains straightforward: to produce the very best drumsticks and percussion accessories in the world.
