Encore TM1 "Two Mallet" Hard Rattan Marimba Mallets

The TM1 hard mallets are part of the newest series offered from Encore Mallets. With most marimba mallets today being designed for four mallet playing, Bill Patterson, percussionist with the San Antonio Symphony, and Dan Lidster (founder of Encore Mallets) have developed two models of mallets specifically designed for two mallet playing. They have a thin rattan handle with a small weighted yarn covered head. These work great for state level competitions as well as professional playing. The TM2 is also a great choice for the Creston Marimba Concerto.
