November 2022 marks Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith’s 30th year as a Vater Drumstick Artist. To commemorate this milestone, Vater is releasing a limited-edition Chad Smith model which will only be manufactured until November 1, 2023. This 30th Anniversary Edition of Chad’s Funk Blaster model is finished in a special silver paint, with a 30th Anniversary logo designation along with Chad’s signature, which has never been available to the public on his Funk Blaster model before. Play them or display them as a collectible…either way, you will own a piece of Chad Smith and Vater History.
“Heart to the hands to the sticks - which are the conduit to the kit. Vater Drumsticks have been it for me now for 30 years!” - Chad Smith
Same grip as a 5B but with a beefier taper for some extra weight up top and acorn tip. Great for heavy, solid playing.
