These mallets were designed to provide an indoor sound in an outdoor environment. Each mallet has its own unique personality and maintains the intended timbre regardless of volume. The marimba mallets are crafted with birch shafts; the vibe mallets feature rattan shafts. Wrapped in a gray wool/acrylic blended yarn or a nylon cord for warm sounds and durability, this series was also designed to look flattering against any uniform.
