Vater

Description

The Vater StickMate Shaker slides right on to your stick, brushes and mallets to give you added sound effects while playing. They're made of lightweight polymer and their low profile won't interfere with your playing, and there's a cut-out in the handle for your thumb to rest in and contact the stick. You can easily put the StickMate Shaker on and take it off. Or, tape the StickMate Shaker on to your drum stick's grip for extended usage.

    Not sure if it's worth reviewing? GC lists them both as "clearance" and i bought the Stickmate Shaker and Stickmate Tambourine at the same time (reviewed separately) for less than 5 each! Others sell for approx 25... I WOULD NOT BE HAPPY AT THAT PRICE! But I'm very happy to have them in my bag and they are worth having for the variety. 4-Stars because it's one of the best "stick add on's", but needs to be modified to be used. #1, This Shaker actually "cuts through" nicely when I play along to music (800 watt PA, level mixed with un-miced kit). Not sure about that with a live band but I use it on my snare or with the cymbals. The Shaker was a pain to use "as-is" and the little rubber gasket does nothing to hold it in place. I would not be happy trying to make that work live. They suggest taping them, but I used 4" wide shipping room "stretch wrap" and it worked great! Now that this add-on no longer comes off the stick, it's really fun to use and adds noticeable percussion to the back beat or cymbal pattern. So what if you dedicate one drumstick-it's worth it! I did that to the Tambourine version as well and it's the same story. I'll add that I think the video is pretty worthless in comparison to their live sound; it's better live!

    I love how easy it is to use. Nothing that is bulky and makes a difference when you play. I plan on getting more to keep at hand. Great price being on sale!
