BASS TONE BARS

Mallets

Properly matched marimba mallets are crucial in bringing forth the magnificent sound of these Bass Tone Bars.  Mallet size and density are matched to the bass tone bar octave.  Note: Larger diameter handles, which make gripping easier, are utilized in larger diameter mallets.
