The Vic Firth M232L Max-Projection Hard Light Marimba Mallets are set a little apart from the others in the series, with a special synthetic core and 5/16" birch shafts that are lighter and more agile, with a warmer tone at every dynamic level.
With their 100% synthetic double-stitched yarn heads, these mallets are hardened warriors in the face of countless reps and Mother Nature. Use them for the crazy-fast runs near the upper end of the marimba, and it won't end up sounding like a xylophone!
