Vater drumsticks

The first sticks made by "Vater" were made by Jack Adams and Ron and Alan's godfather Fred Maichle in Jacks Drum Shop in Boston Jack's was one of the first shops to offer custom models, and began producing custom models for Buddy Rich Philly Joe Jones and Elvin Jones 

In the early to mid-1980s what would become Vater began manufacturing drumsticks for Vic Firth and Zildjian Cymbals.

On 22 October 1988, Vater moved their factory to Holbrook,Mass. Three years later the first Vater drumsticks were introduced at a Percussive Arts Society show..

Vater guarantees their sticks to be "straighter, more consistent and of higher quality than all other leading drumstick manufacturers". Vater sticks typically have a higher moisture content than other drumsticks, which is intended to create more durable drumsticks, though this does result in a slightly heavier stick.
