Chad Smith's fat and funky blasters, otherwise known as sticks. But, with a short and beefy taper for extra weight, giving you a meatier punch. The Vater Funk Blaster sticks feature the same grip as 5B's and an acorn tip for a sharp, yet balanced tone. They have been a favourite of Chad's for years since using regular 5B's, so maybe you will find that perfect connection with these sticks too.
