Vater Nude 5A Nylon Tip

Designed for players who like a no-nonsense feel and confident grip, the Vater Nude 5A Nylon Tip drumsticks bring together tactile control and crisp cymbal articulation. They’re stripped down—literally—with no lacquer or glossy coating, leaving you with a raw, natural finish that stays secure in sweaty hands and under hot lights.

This stick is a classic 5A at its core: 16 inches in length and 0.570" in diameter, which gives it that sweet balance between agility and control. It’s the kind of stick that adapts—equally at home in rock, funk, jazz, or pop. But where the Nude series truly shines is in its grip. The unfinished surface gives you a dry, slightly gritty texture that enhances handling without feeling sticky or overdone. It’s a player’s stick—simple, tactile, and to the point.

The nylon tip brings extra bite and clarity, especially on cymbals. Expect a crisp, glassy response on your ride and hi-hats, perfect for cutting through a mix or adding definition to your groove. The small acorn shape balances the tone, offering bright articulation without sounding too sharp or synthetic.

Like all Vater sticks, these are made from solid American hickory, offering durability, flex, and excellent shock absorption. So whether you’re gigging hard or rehearsing long hours, your hands stay protected and your tone stays consistent.

Here at Musicmaker, the Nude 5A Nylon Tip is a favourite for working drummers who want comfort, grip, and versatility without any gloss or gimmicks. It’s honest, effective, and made to perform.
