Vater VHSW Studio American Hickory Wood Tip Drumsticks (Pair)

Crafted with a distinctive barrel-shaped tip, these drumsticks produce a rich, full-bodied sound whilst maintaining controlled volume levels, making them perfect for both studio work and live performances. The grip size sits just under a 7A, offering comfortable handling for extended playing sessions.

The Vater story began long before the company’s official establishment in November 1991, with the family’s drumstick craftsmanship roots tracing back decades to the basement of Boston’s legendary Jack’s Drum Shop, where they created bespoke items for discerning musicians. Today, operating from their Holbrook Massachusetts headquarters, Vater has expanded their range to include hundreds of different models that cater to diverse playing styles and preferences.

The brand has earned the trust of world-renowned drummers including Chad Smith, Stewart Copeland, and Josh Freeze, testament to their unwavering commitment to quality. At Vater, the mission remains straightforward yet ambitious: to produce the very best drumsticks and percussion accessories in the world, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation.
