Vater Power 5A Hickory Wood Tip

The extended Vater Power 5A wood-tip pair.
The extended Vater Power 5A wood-tip pair.

When to choose it

Choose the Power 5A Wood if the 0.580-inch grip of Vater’s Fusion already works and you want more reach on the same kit. This model is 16½ inches long, compared with 16 inches for the Fusion. Check that extra half inch at your usual hand position before deciding whether a thicker stick would help.

The hickory shaft and wood tip make it a useful comparison with Vater’s Power 5A Nylon when you already like the extended profile. Match the tip material and model when ordering. The selected listing specifies a pair.
