Classic Sticks for the Modern Big Band Drummer
Introduced at NAMM 2019, the Vater Classics Stick series consists of 6 core models that utilise the original specifications and profiles used when they were first produced by Vater in the 50s and 60s.
Giving a nod to their humble manufacturing beginnings when sticks were hand-turned, each of the hickory sticks in the Classics range maintain the time-honoured and much-loved specs of the original production.
Vater Classics Drumsticks are available in 7a, 5a, 5b, 2b, 8d Jazz and Big Band models in either wood or nylon tip versions.
Vater Classics VHCBB Big Band Wood Tip Drumsticks Specifications:
- Length: 16 inch
- Diameter: 0.560 inch
- Tip: Small Round
Vater Classics Big Band Wood
Featuring a .560 inch diameter that's slightly smaller than that of a 5a stick, the Vater Classics Big Band offers a comfortable playing grip, while the 16 inch length delivers standard reach.
Specifically designed to meet the needs of big band drummers, the Vater Big Band features a gradual taper and a smaller sized tip which combine to deliver a crisp and clear ride cymbal response.
Delivering the clarity needed to cut through the dense mix of a big band ensemble, the small rounded tip and forward feeling taper ensure a robust ride response that captures all the intricacies of big band drumming.
Summary
The Vater Big Band sticks are the ideal choice for drummers who prefer a slimmer stick to a 5a but need a shorter taper for a more immediate playing feel.
Utilising the original specifications used in the first production of the Big Band sticks, this new version delivers a quick, responsive playing feel tailor made for the high energy playing of big band.
The gradual taper and small wood tip serve to ensure your ride cymbal sings with cutting clarity.
