Vic Firth M273 Iain Moyer Hard Marimba Mallets

Description

VIC FIRTH M273

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 M273 are Hard to very hard. Ideal for the top two octaves of the instrument, or in the middle register when played with a lighter touch.
