Description

Designed for dynamic, stylistically diverse performances, the VMSZL allows drummers and percussionists to move fluidly between textures. Use the bundled rod end for quieter, nuanced playing on drums and cymbals, and flip to the mallet end for swells, rolls, or softer hits that demand warmth and subtlety. Whether you’re on a stage, in a pit, or behind a hybrid kit, the Sizzle Stick design provides controlled sound and unmatched versatility in one reliable stick.

Sound & Feel:

  • Controlled and Subtle – Bundled rods reduce volume while maintaining articulation

  • Warm and Lush – Felt mallet end produces full, resonant tones

  • Versatile and Responsive – Perfect balance for seamless transitions between ends

Built to Last:

  • Premium hickory construction ensures durability for high-performance use

  • Felt mallet head maintains shape and tone through frequent transitions

  • Crafted with precision and quality by Vater for consistent performance

Ideal For:

  • Theatre and pit players requiring quick access to both rods and mallets

  • Drum set players blending groove with cymbal or tom color

  • Multi-percussionists looking for compact, all-in-one stick solutions
