Vater Drumsticks VHS2W Studio 2 American Hickory Series Barrel Wood Tip

American Hickory: The Studio 2 Modell is made from North American hickory wood. The material is denser, harder and heavier than maple, while also being more elastic than oak. Hickory absorbs a large part of the vibration energy on impact and is dried under controlled conditions to 10 to 12 percent residual moisture. Dimensions: The model has a length of 15.88 inch / 40.32 cm and a diameter of 0.555 inch / 1.41 cm. The stick is therefore shorter and thinner than a 5A, while also being designed as a stronger version of the Studio model. Ball-shaped wood tip: The tip is made of wood and has a ball shape. This round tip shape is part of the specific design of the Studio 2 and distinguishes the model from the Studio with its barrel-shaped tip. More substantial Studio version: The Studio 2 is designed as a more substantial version of the Studio model. At the same time, the stick remains shorter and thinner than a 5A. This results in the specified positioning between the comparison models. Precise manufacturing and tuning: The sticks are computer-controlled turned and precisely ground. A computer system analyses weight, timbre or frequency and balance and pairs up correspondingly matching sticks.
