The heads of these lightweight beaters are made from medium density beech wood lathed into a perfectly smooth and relatively large sphere to create a hard finish without the extra weight of rubber or the gloss of plastic. Their percussive ‘knocking’ attack sound is perfectly suited to xylophones and woodblocks but can be useful for other percussion instruments when long decay and a slightly more subtle attack is desired. Each ball is mounted on a perfectly weighted black plastic stick which is tapered for optimum balance and control.
