5 FAQ
Q: How does the 'Medium-Hard' rating compare to other brands?
A: Our Medium-Hard is generally equivalent to a #3 hardness on the standard 1-5 scale used by major manufacturers. It sits right in the middle, offering a blend of articulation and warmth.
Q: Are these mallets suitable for a beginner student?
A: Yes, absolutely. While they are professional grade, the medium-hard hardness is very forgiving and helps students develop good technique without producing a harsh sound if struck too hard.
Q: Do these come in a case or just a bag?
A: This specific model comes with a durable canvas drawstring pouch for storage and transport. Hard cases are sold separately if you need extra protection for touring.
Q: Can I use these on a vibraphone with metal bars?
A: Yes, these yarn-wrapped mallets are safe for metal bars. They will produce a warmer, softer tone compared to plastic or cord mallets, which is often desirable for lyrical vibraphone passages.
Q: What is the return policy if the shafts arrive warped?
A: We stand behind our quality. If you receive any mallets with warped shafts or defects, please contact us within 30 days for a free replacement or full refund.
