Rubber Xylo and Bell Mallets »

Designed for indoor, out-door, or concert settings. The shape of the mallet head is designed for optimum sound throughout the overtone series. VM-R1 VM-R1 The soft creates a warm sound that is great for ambiance or soft passages in the music. A great mallet to use in legato passages, allowing the mallets to blend with the rest of the ensemble. It allows the tone of the instrument to speak without being lost. It is a great way to add the sound without the strong attack. VM-R2 VM-R2 The medium mallet creates a full sound and is a great blend of attack and tone. The length of the mallet allows you to have the versatility to choke up or to hold the mallets further back for more leverage VM-R3 VM-R3 The hard mallets offer a clear and full sound with strong attack to the instrument without the sound sticking out of the blend of the ensemble.

MV-T2XL »

VM-R3 Large 1 1Ú2" lexan disk. The largerhard disk allows the mallet to rebound from drum head to drum head quickly without contacting the rims. Great for articulating scraps, sweeps and windmills.
