(Almost) Perfect Mallets 9/10

These are the best sounding mallets that I have played with. The graduated set gives great articulations for chords and technical inner mallet passages alike. They give clear articulation with inner and mallet 4 while giving a warm bass sound with mallet 1 but struggle with durability due to the alpaca yarn blend being a fragile material.

I am a percussion student who enjoys playing lots of different styles of marimba music, though my I tend to choose pieces that have a mix of American influence and that of another region (i.e. Japan, Europe) like the styles of Keiko Abe, Chin Cheng Lin, and of course Pius Cheung. While I am admittedly not an expert when it comes to this topic, I still believe that these mallets are some of the best in the market. The warm and rich, full tone just cannot be matched. (if gourmet chocolate cake was a marimba mallet, it would be these) And yet, these mallets also have the capability to deliver articulation when the core is activated. And they are sold in a graduated set? WTF? It's like these mallets have the versatility of a "general all-around mallet", but the quality of a true artist series, all at a reasonable price. For my senior recital I used this series for Abe's "Wind in the Bamboo Grove", as well as Lin's "Pray for a Wish", and they were excellent options for both. Great quality, beautiful sound and construction, would highly recommend. 11/10!!

Just the best

Absolutely great mallets. Really well weight and tone balance. The shafts are unfinished but really really smooth. They have held up for the entire time I've had them and after a year of heavy use they show no wear.
