There's nothing worse than running out of sticks, especially on stage. The Vater Hickory Drum Stick Prepack is perfect for replenishing your stick bag and saving some money in the process. These hickory sticks are denser and heavier, which help absorb shock and prevent muscle fatigue, and they're more durable so you can get a few more songs into your setlist. Save money, time and your wrists. Pick up a prepack today.

Great Sticks

I started off using Zildjian sticks, I did not like them because they didn't feel solid to me. They felt lightweight and "hollow" on the inside. These sticks were like a breath of fresh air. They have a great weight, they are very durable, and really bring out the tone and sound in your drums and cymbals. Buy Them! You won't be disappointed.

Meh, not really 5As

If you like Vic Firth or Pro-Mark 5As, these ain't that. Vater offers a good price, but these are flimsy compared to the big boys. Very light in the hand and quickly splintering during practice. I'll pay the higher price for the higher quality in the future.

    I've been using Vater hickory sticks since the 80's. I find them to be very durable and, most importantly, very well balanced. The 5B wood is my favorite model. The girth and weight give them enough power for blues, funk and rock but they can be used for lighter music like jazz. SWEET
