LIke playing any other keyboard instrument!

Comments: I got a pair of these at PASIC and I love them! I got to use them to perform Hazo's Ride and they're great for the more percussive sections, and we are using them for Ionisation as well. I think my only problem with them is that they lack the fullness of a chime hammer, and there needs to be a softer option.

Good idea, bad sound

Comments: I have a set of these at the school I teach at, and I am impressed with their construction and the concept, but they do not produce as full of a sound as a traditional rawhide mallet. They may be good for very fast passages, but for the vast majority of chime parts a hammer, particularly a rawhide hammer sounds better.

FANTASTIC!

Comments: Tried these out at PASIC in Indy 2011 and had to get a pair. I have been using them in concert band and choir at the college I attend, and absolutely love these! Super versatile, durable, and sound most importantly, they sound great.

Lifesaving sticks

Comments: A must for contemporary music, they let you play really fiddly passages as easy as you would on xylophone. The larger ones especially sound pretty close to using a normal tubular bell hammer.
