Overview:
The Vic Firth TW4 Steve Smith Tala Wand Slatz features a foam center that is surrounded with four flat bamboo slats wrapped in thin PVC. This provides a variety of unique sounds with great rebound and feel. This product is unique in that they create softer sounds than sticks but are louder than other Tala Wand and Rute models.
The size, coloration, and shape of each slat is completely unique to that strip - you may see some sprays of brown or green, as well as some bends in the slat. These are natural variations in bamboo, and are completely intentional. A rubber o-ring near the top of each stick allows you to adjust how far the slats come away from the core, therefore adjusting your sound becomes.
