YAMAHA KEIKO ABE YARN RATTAN MALLET SOFT

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 to resonate fully creating a sound that has been up until now, difficult to obtain. The round yarn wound heads are heavier than standard mallets, but they are fully capable of delivering delicate expression.
