I am very pleased with my marimba and highly recommend this instrument to anyone who is looking! - Mark Surovchak

Double Helix Mallet Series

The Double Helix Mallet Series is a mid-weight line that we developed to bring out the warmth of the fundamental throughout the range of the marimba.

The Double Helix are made with one synthetic yarn and one wool yarn wrapped with relaxed tension. Each mallet in the series evokes a warm deep tone from the keyboard.

The six mallets in this series are available with birch or rattan handles.
