They produce a very warm sound that can also be used in soft graduated sets in the \"tenor\" position. Rattan Handles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne unique characteristic of my line is that the oval-shape of the mallet head is horizontal rather than vertical. I imagine (and maybe it's true) that the width of the mallet activates more of the vertical grains of wood in every bar-thus contributing to a richer tone. Everything about the construction of my line of mallets-from the cores, to the latex, to the type of yarn-is aimed at helping you to produce a fundamental-rich tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Nancy Zeltsman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness - Medium Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandles - Rattan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Encore Mallets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43833448038454,"sku":"ENC-NZ5R","price":56.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/encore-nz5r-nancy-zeltsman-marimba-mallets.jpg?v=1779826663","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/encore-nancy-zeltsman-nz5r-mallets","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
