Vater is excited to now offer Dom Famularo’s highly sought‑after Pad Stick as an official part of the Vater product line, available worldwide. Dom modeled the design of his Pad Stick after a vintage stick model he used while studying with the legendary Joe Morello decades ago. Constructed from Sugar Maple with a 0.675" grip size and 16 3/8" length, it has a drastic taper and finishes with a large ball‑shaped tip that produces an articulate sound on a pad. The combination of grip size, length, taper, and tip shape makes Dom’s Pad Stick very responsive.
Â
Over the years, Dom’s Pad Stick has been a very helpful tool for his students around the world, and of all skill levels, while working on hand and grip technique, rudiments, stick strokes, and warm‑up exercises. Dom not only used the Pad Stick for his renowned teaching practices, but also to strengthen and stretch his own hands while keeping his chops up.
