Malletech Leigh Howard Stevens LS1 Very Soft Birch Marimba Mallets

Very soft, single-toned bass mallet for effortless, continuous organ-style chorale playing.

The nine models in the Stevens line are the smoothest rolling, least “slappy” mallets for solo marimba playing available anywhere in the world. Each model has four to six distinct layers of construction which work with the player to generate the maximum bar sound, minimize contact noise and offer superb low-dynamic control, all without sacrificing any of the high volume potential of a “normal” mallet. These layers of construction and performance features are built into a mallet that is still reasonably lightweight, perfectly balanced and therefore easy to maneuver through today’s challenging solo literature. All Leigh Howard Stevens Mallets feature super soft yarn and select birch handles.
