Vic Firth M271 Iain Moyer Med-Hard Marimba Mallets

Description

VIC FIRTH M271

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 M271 are Medium to medium-hard. Equally suited for soft, expressive playing and articulate playing in the bottom two-thirds of the instrument.
