Vater and legendary percussionist Richie "Gajate" Garcia are proud to unveil Gajate's Sazon, and updated version of the traditional timbale stick. The Sazon is a 7/16 inch timbale stick with a nylon sleeve on one end. The nylon side creates a bright, clear attack on timbales and is excellent for creating a variety of tone colors on multiple percussion instruments, and the wood end gives the traditional sound. This combination of tonal possibilities makes Gajate's Sazon a versatile addition to any percussionist's arsenal.
