Description
PLAY ON HAND DRUMS: the Meinl Stick & Brush Percussion Mallet is a hybrid drumstick/mallet that's soft enough to be safely used on hand drums and animal hide heads.WHY IT MATTERS: unlike standard sticks, you can strike any surface with these hybrid sticks, even bongos and congas with natural rawhide, without risking damage to drum heads.MALLET SPECS: 16.690" long, 0.630" diameter, round soft felt tips, short taper, sold in pairs.ZOOM IN: we use a round shape soft felt tip to produce warm tone with reduced attack on hand drums, blocks, and bells.OF NOTE: a thicker shoulder with short taper gives this stick more of a solid feel in your hand; these sticks will stand up to heavy rim shots and cymbal crashes.CATCH UP QUICK: these hybrid mallets are made in Germany from premium United States hickory for strength and durability; hickory is our strongest wood type and is great for all-around use.THE BOTTOM LINE: they're perfect if you're a percussionist who needs a stick for multiple instruments with sensitive surfaces like natural rawhide.THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
