Vater Fusion Wood Tip Hickory Drumsticks, Pair

These are by far my favorite drumsticks. Vater makes a beautiful product. Sturdy wood sticks hold up to a beating. Before I found these, the promark rebounds were my go to. These vater fusions hold up better and the small tip is great for a variety of different playing styles. They are especially good for cymbal articulation. These are also cheaper than your promark and vic virth brands.

Rounded ball wood tip, i'm starting to like it for more stick articulation and crisper ride patterns. Weight and balance is quite similar to any other 5a. Does both hard hitting, and lighter fusion. Trying to ignore the Vic Firth 5a's for a while and get used to these. So far I like it.

Bought as a gift. Very pleased w stivks. Was exactly what ge wanted

I really like this stick for some practice but prefer the clarity of plastic tips. Just depends on what tones you’re looking for.I find Vater sticks have a great feel and balanced weight.

One of my sticks of choice

Been playing with these on kit for 15 years. Love the feel and responsive when playing multiple styles- rock, country, musical, ballads etc.

I like the weight and the bounce I get with these sticks. A great medium weight stick for all types of play. I wish there was a lighter stick with a smaller nylon round tip for jazz and lighter play like in a 7a. Maybe Vater will take my request under advisement. Having the nylon tip really helps with crisp sound on the cymbals for the life of the stick that all wood sticks just can't match in my opinion.

These sticks are light enough that my son can play for hours, but also durable enough that he knows they will last for a while. We've been through several brands and sets and the Vater Fusion's are definitely the preferred brand of sticks for the drummer in my life!
