Glockenspiel mallets with heads of synthetic material and brass core
The synthetic compound used for these mallets is relatively hard, non-porous and gives a brilliant sound.
The integrated brass threaded sleeve gives the necessary volume and a positive feel when playing.
The mallets are available in two different sizes, and offer a choice between relatively short wooden handles and longer rattan handles.
