Description

The Salyers Percussion PCX21 features a large 1.25″ soft plastic ball. The rubber-like material works extremely well on marimba, vibraphone and xylophone. The rattan shafts are matched in diameter and flex. This is a very versatile mallet.

The Performance Collection unwound mallets are designed to offer a comprehensive selection of sonic possibilities to the advanced percussionist. Head sizes available are 1″, 1.125″ and 1.25″. The rattan size sets this series apart from any other series available. The trend of using very thick rattan on unwound mallets results in a stiff shaft that does not allow the natural flex of rattan to help get the best sound from the keys. We use a rattan size that feels good yet flexes just enough to help you get the best sound possible from your instruments.

These mallets have saved the day for me so many times. As the description says, these mallets provide a clear and dark sound on the full range of the marimba, a brighter/more articulate sound on vibes, and a dark, delicate sound on xylophone. They also work very well on wood blocks and other auxiliary percussion. I used these recently for a performance of Ron Nelson's "Rocky Point Holiday" (played marimba). I had to double-stroke certain passages, and these mallets made diddles far easier and cleaner than yarn-wound mallets. In short, these mallets rule, would totally recommend.
