Drumsticks from Meinl Mallets series. Many of the mallets on the market today were created for orchestral use, and drummers have had to adapt their purpose for applications on the drum set. One of our first ideas was to develop mallets with the drum set drummer in mind first so that switching between drum sticks and mallets is a seamless transition. Our drumset mallets are specifically designed for drummers who need a mallet for cymbal swells and thunderous toms, featuring a 5A diameter handle made from American hickory for strength and durability. Model: Super Soft Drumset Mallet. Material: American hickory. Diameter: 1,40 cm. Length: 40 cm. Head diameter: 4,10 cm.
