Vater Vh52jw 52nd St. Jazz Wood Tip

Product Description

Named after the legendary street in Manhattan and replicated after one of the early hand-turned Jack’s Drum Shop Models this design is straight out of the great Jazz and Big Band era. The long and flat oval tip produces warm and road ride cymbal tones with full-bodied drum sounds. The quick taper gives it a great feel and response. American Hickory dowels have to meet very strict quality characteristics to be made into a Vater drumstick. Vater's Hickory is stress released which is done by slowly raising the temperature at the end of the drying cycle for 8 hours. This relieves the stress in the wood and produces straight sticks that stay straight.
