    $17 marimba mallets.. this is a new unparalleled record for cheap marimba mallets on my channel! We've seen it all from the super expensive Wave Wraps ($86.95) to the now long lost 0gravity Percussion (???) and CustomMalletCreations ($30)... but $17! WOW! Are they any good for the price, or is it just another generic mallet?

    These mallets are just crazy cheap... anyway, thanks again to Jet Percussion for sending me these! I love seeing greater access to marimba and percussion in general, and having a lower price of entry really helps with that :)
    Also, on a more serious note, please stay safe and take care in the next few weeks as we all battle the craziness that's happening around the world right now (and thoughts go out to those affected by the recent WGI cancellation!). Anyway, we will fight together in these next few months!

    I love the prices for the mallets, so good, I am literally just learning how to play four mallets on marimba, these are great to buy, thank you Adam for reviewing the mallets, I might buy them in the future.♥️

  • @NotXarex
    @NotXarex Před 4 lety +8

    These mallets might be really good for me lol, especially the length since my arms are kinda short.
    I might even get a pair to use at state because my Vic Firths are wearing out and plus the sound quality is similar to those in my Vic Firths

  • @kevinfavela1649
    @kevinfavela1649 Před 4 lety +6

    Try smith mallets, they are even more affordable and i honestly love them, they have lasted me through 2 marching, indoor, and concert seasons and they are amazing, i have the hemp series and ensenble series and they are great, i have a full series of both for marimba and vibes and also have 2 pairs of timpani mallets and cymbal mallets, swizzle sticks, and chip sticks and roller mallets full set of unwound series xylo and bell and full field series

      @kevinfavela1649 Před 4 lety +2

      And when i called to ask about them i talked directly to robb smith and the service was great, if i could afford some more, id buy bore but i am slicked back on a budget

    I got my balter basics marimba mallets for $17 a pair. Wish I would have gotten different mallets like these those, they work and sound fine, I just wish I had different ones sometimes

  • @noahgormanmusic1843

    Hey Adam, consider giving Blue Haus mallets a shot - completely customizable and they run for about $32 USD/pair

    I might actually get a pair or two as practice mallets! My current IP 240 mallets are starting to seriously fray and fall apart

    • @AdamTanPercussion
      @AdamTanPercussion  Před 4 lety

      I have to say, I think these feel better built than the IP240s 😆

  • @andrewsmith1133
    @andrewsmith1133 Před 4 lety +4

    What are your thoughts on wrapping your own mallets?

    • @AdamTanPercussion
      @AdamTanPercussion  Před 4 lety +1

      Some of my friends are really good at it and they can turn out really well! But they say it's usually the hardware (core and shaft) that make it difficult, unless you already have some good unwound ones :)

  • @zaidenallen9933
    @zaidenallen9933 Před 4 lety +2

    Yeah I could afford these! Except my middle school only has a 3 octave xylophone. Could I use it on that?

  • @outreachh4037
    @outreachh4037 Před 4 lety +3

    Do they sell a graduated set? That would be a good price to get a graduated set and it not be like 100$

    • @AdamTanPercussion
      @AdamTanPercussion  Před 4 lety +3

      It's cheap enough to just buy 3 models and mix and match to your liking! I'd probably buy 1, 2 and 4 😁

  • @judyrury6103
    @judyrury6103 Před 4 lety +1

    Can these mallets be used on a vibraphone? I like a softer melodic sound from my vibraphone.

    • @AdamTanPercussion
      @AdamTanPercussion  Před 4 lety +1

      Possibly! They might be a bit long though 😅

    "getting more people onto marimba" Yeah, I am sure, the real pricetag of marimba isnt in 2 sets of mallets.

    • @AdamTanPercussion
      @AdamTanPercussion  Před 2 lety +1

      It's not, but you can get into marimba without owning one yourself for quite a while! I got into it for several years without ever owning one haha
