Encore NM4B Nanae Mimura Medium Birch Marimba Mallets - Product Information

Nanae Mimura Series mallets are slightly heavier than NZ Series mallets. They feature rubber disk cores hand wrapped with latex, and are covered by North American wool. Encore's unique hand wrapped latex process enhances the fundamental allowing harder mallets which do not sound harsh, and improves the feel of the mallet's rebound. The yarn is all natural wool which is not chemically processed and therefore particularly soft and durable. (Our yarn is purchased from the sheep farm that harvests the wool - the yarn is so natural that you may occasionally see a small piece of hay from a mallet head!) The softness of their yarn combined with the hardness and clarity of their latex-wrapped disk cores make NM Series mallets two-toned and very versatile. Medium, with birch shafts.

Great Mallets

Comments:

These mallets are great. The yarn is soft, which lessens the contact sound, making rolls effortless. But also, they speak well throughout the entire instrument. The mallet cores is latex, which makes the fundamental tone really strong. These are my go-to mallets for concert applications. They are a little heavier than the Nancy Zeltsman mallets. I play on a synthetic marimba, so they speak a little better than the Zeltzmans. On rosewood, it really depends on the sound you are looking for. They are both great.
