The Vater Beantown Brush is a vintage-inspired design that pays tribute to the classic jazz brushes of decades past. Inspired by brushes discovered in the collection of Jack Adams—Alan Vater’s grandfather and founder of Jack’s Drum Shop in Boston—the Beantown Brush captures the feel and sound of a true old-school favorite.
Featuring a slim .530" grip and thinner gauge wire, the Beantown Brush offers a light, fast feel with enhanced flexibility and a smooth, soft response. The result is a classic swish sound that jazz drummers will immediately appreciate. Its reddish-brown rubber grip is a nod to both the vintage brush era and Boston’s famous nickname, "Beantown," where the Vater family’s drumstick-making legacy began.
Praised by acclaimed drummer Ulysses Owens Jr. as a faithful recreation of the jazz brush standard, the Beantown Brush delivers exceptional craftsmanship, feel, and tone for traditional and modern players alike.
