Ron Vaughn Percussion Cymbal Mallets - 14" Rattan Handles - Product Information

Ron Vaughn Percussion CYMM-4R Rattan Cymbal mallets have been and remain one of the most important mallets many professionals own. Feature 14" matched and balanced rattan shafts.

The balance and weight of the CYMM-4R's provide almost effortless cymbal rolls with long, even crescendos and decrescendos, with no audible evidence of the players rhythmic roll strokes. The CYMM-4's are also capable of rapid dynamic expressions on cymbals such as szforzandos, and with practice, a superb subito piano. The dense mallet head fabric texture can suppress cymbal vibration without distortion or choke.

Ron originally developed these mallets in the 1970's while doing a lot of playing in symphonies, on pop and jazz tours, and extensive studio work in the United States and South America. The CYMM-4's are voiced/designed for cymbals generally from 14 inches in diameter and larger.

Performance Tip: Both the CYMM-4's and CYMM-5's are excellent for priming gongs of all sizes, particularly larger gongs and tam tams, wind gongs, etc.

Liked them a lot!

Comments:

These mallets feel and sound great-- I used them not just for cymbals, but for multi setups that included things like toms, woodblocks, cowbells, etc. The covering on the head did wear out within a year or so, but I gave them a pretty good beating. Overall very satisfied! Highly recommend having a pair of these.
