Nude Series Drumsticks Due to extremely high demand, Vater has introduced the Nude Series, a line of drumsticks with no finish or lacquer. The core of Vater’s Nude Series is the extremely popular 5A, 5B and Power 5B models, each available in both wood and nylon tip. The unfinished sticks leave a comfortable sanded grip that is perfect for drummers who have problems with stick slippage due to hand sweat while performing.
New Grip Tape Vater’s new Grip Tape is designed to offer drummers a very comfortable grip on their sticks. The reusable linen based Grip Tape is durable, absorbent and dries quickly. Each package contains 4 rolls to wrap 2 pairs of sticks and each roll contains 2 end tapes for extra security on the stick. Vater’s Grip Tape is available in White (VGTW), Black (VGTB), Red (VGTR) and Grey (VGTG).
