Manufacturer's Description These big fluffy soft timpani mallets are ideal for creating big smooth drumrolls and thunderous orchestral swells. They can of course be used with other percussion instruments to create interesting effects too. Unlike the other Percussion Plus kettle drum mallets which use a standard cork core, these beaters have a solid felt head at their centre. This is wrapped in a thick blanket of felt and cotton wool to cushion the impact and make the percussive attack as slow and boomy as possible when playing. Their lightweight untapered shafts are made from a perfectly balanced varnished wawa wood dowel. This listing is for a packet of 2 beaters only (1 pair). Every pair of Percussion Plus beaters is made in the renowned Leicestershire workshop by our team of experienced craftsmen. You simply won't find better quality for the price! We cater for players of any standard, and the versatile range of beaters, mallets, and sticks we offer includes the perfect match for any percussion instrument you can think of.

As well as orchestral kettle drums, the beaters are also often used to play low pitched tuned percussion such as bass chimes and marimbas, and to create special effects on drum kits. Each one has a well-balanced wooden shaft and features a fluffy round head made from soft felt, making them ideal for creating big smooth drumrolls. They can of course be used with other percussion instruments to create a wide range of effects.
