The Grover Pro Chromatone II series of timpani mallets features a simple, quality design that gets a professional sound at a fraction of the price of high-end mallets. They feature bamboo shafts with rubber handles for a clean, confident grip and a lightweight profile that pulls weight away from the mallet head.
This allows the mallet to feel balanced and responsive while still being lightweight in the front. The seamlessly-sewn, color-coded felt sounds excellent and doesn't require you to use extra caution to avoid playing with the seam.
Cores are made of cork, which creates an even lighter and warmer feel overall, and are round, allowing the player to adjust the angle of attack without significantly altering responsiveness! This general model has a medium articulation that you can use in a large variety of musical situations, allowing you to change your technique or angle to drift between articulate passages and lighter, roll-heavy passages with ease.
