Developed for the player who is looking for ultimate rebound on the drum and ride cymbal, the American Jazz line consists of 6 models which feature a long taper in the shaft for that great feel! The neck specifications are sizeable enough to create dark cymbal sounds, and the small teardrop tip keeps everything in focus.

This Bamboo Splashstick has the same physical design as Vater's original Splashstick, but is constructed from bamboo dowels. The bamboo offers superb durability and some added weight for a solid feel, without excess volume. Bamboo is also the fastest growing plant on Earth, making this a very eco-friendly stick.
19 hand-selected birch dowels provide warm acoustic tonality while producing a solid crack. The extended rubber grip leaves 4" of the dowels exposed, offering stick-like feel with excellent durability in the rimshot area.
The Vater Traditional Splashstick may be the ultimate traditional style multi-dowel drumstick. The Traditional Splashstick is crafted from 19 hand-selected birch dowels with a comfortable rubber grip that is perfect for lower volume settings.
This model is a cross between our Rock Rake and the original Rute. A great choice for light jazz and combo playing. With thirty-one plastic bristles (.094") secured in a vinyl handle.
L=15" | Handle thickness = .690"
Vater designed the Monster Brush in collaboration with New York based artist LaFrae Olivia Sci. The Monster is a versatile specialty brush that adjusts to provide the subtlety and swish of a brush or a stick-like feel for a fat backbeat without a ton of volume. Vater gives the Monster Brush a large but comfortable grip and wavy polymer strands for unique sound and feel.
A retractable wire brush with an infinitely adjustable brush spread capable of maintaining any playing position. A 6" spread and extra heavy gauge wire provide maximum coverage and sound.
These six models reflect Vic's fifty years of experience as Solo Timpanist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Each mallet is turned from a single piece of rock maple, which eliminates a core that could rattle and the need for a screw-on washer to secure the head. Coupled with round seamless heads, they produce bigger and brighter sounds.
Vic Firth’s bass drum mallets combine seamless, round felt heads with tapered maple handles for deep, dark sound without excessive weight. The exception is the BD8 with its extraordinary weight and contoured shaft. The gong mallets feature turned maple handles and are offered with fleece covered (GB1-2) or yarn wound (GB3-4) heads. The chime hammer is designed for durability, with a high impact head and a hickory handle.
