Gospel Series
Under the direction of several Vater Artists including Gorden Campbell, Nisan Stewart and Chris Johnson, Vater is the first drumstick company to introduce a line of drumsticks geared towards the Gospel Drumming genre. Vater's Gospel Series consists of three models designed to meet the feel, weight and volume needs of Gospel drummers. The Gospel Series models measure in at 16.5" for some extra length and three diameters to suit the variety of volume, dynamic and venues size challenges these drummers face. Gospel Series models are available in wood tip only.
