Keiko Abe 08 - very soft, Wood handle, length 430 mm, core 33x23 mm

Designed in close collaboration with Keiko Abe, her Signature Series Mallets are designed to draw out the most from both the performer's technique and tone from the instrument in compositions that require exceptional technique. Ideal for advanced players, these mallets are much heavier than regular mallets. This causes the marimba's tone bars resonate fully creating a sound that has been up until now, difficult to attain. The round yarn wound heads are heavier than standards mallets, but they are carefully capable of delivering delicate expression.
