Vic Firth M270 Iain Moyer Medium Marimba Mallets

VIC FIRTH M270

Multi-tonal in construction, the four marimba models respond to the player’s touch on the instrument. Increased velocity offers brighter articulation. Composers and arrangers will find that they can keep the same models in the players’ hands for longer passages – changing articulation through technique and touch, rather than mallet changes. Birch shafts in the vibraphone models offer increased rigidity – great for fast, two-mallet passages in the upper registers and for turn-on-a-dime dynamic changes from note to note. These birch shaft vibraphone mallets are also great on marimba, offering a unique cord-wrapped articulation.

The M270 are Medium-soft to medium. Produces a lush and full sound in the bottom half of the instrument, while maintaining the multi-tonal characteristics of the series.
