Unique baroque style shape Hornwood ™ shaft. Excellent for all early classical works and especially on small “authentic” timpani.
There are lots of “Baroque” model timpani mallets mostly copied from museum pieces and I’ve tried virtually all of them. I came to this head shape design because I wanted something slightly wider and taller than the others I’ve tried yet still maintaining its authentic sound and feel. Hornwood™ is harder than either ebony or rosewood and gives you a similar feel and response with more consistent pitch. Try covering these with chamois or anything you want for variety. Excellent in the percussion section or ensemble for tom tom and other drum parts.
