VATER Hickory New Orleans Jazz Nylon

Made in the USA from high grade American hickory, Vater Drumsticks are made the same as they've always been, resulting in a consistent and durable drumstick: Hands-on craftsmanship, higher moisture content in the raw material, lathe turned, tumble finished and hand rolled. All Vater Drumsticks are tone and weight matched by computer analysis. Designed in collaboration with renowned jazz drummer and educator Steve Fidyk, the Swing model has a “double taper”, meaning that it is slightly thicker towards the middle of the drumstick than in the grip and then finishes with a very quick and thin taper. This produces a drumstick that possesses great sensitivity and exceptionally fast rebound Wood Type: Hickory | Taper: Long Tip: Wood | Tip Shape: Oval Stick Diameter: 0.535" | 1.36cm Stick Length: 16" | 40.64cm
