Vater Manhattan Brush
Vater Manhattan Brush
Designed for drummers who demand finesse without sacrificing feel, the Vater Manhattan Brush brings a thoughtful blend of comfort, control, and creative flexibility to your setup. Built around the beloved grip of Vater’s Manhattan 7A drumsticks, this brush features the same familiar handle—longer than standard, with a natural wooden feel that sits effortlessly in your hands.
What sets the Manhattan Brush apart is the clever addition of an extra ½ inch in length, giving you that bit more reach and leverage—especially useful for expressive playing across wider surfaces or tighter setups. With a total length of 14¼" (36.51cm) and a grip diameter of 0.540" (1.37cm), it offers just the right balance of comfort and control. The flexible gauge wire fans out beautifully, allowing for a wide range of dynamic textures, from subtle whispers to articulate strokes.
It’s a brush that feels immediately familiar to stick players but opens up the nuanced, expressive world of brush work with ease. Whether you're laying down jazz grooves, exploring ballad dynamics, or blending acoustic textures in the studio, the Vater Manhattan Brush offers the precision and musicality to meet the moment.
