Kolberg 866 tam-tam-/gong mallet cylindric large (single)

All-round tam-tam/gong mallet

The finely balanced weight - not too heavy - makes these mallets very good to handle and into ideal roll mallets for tam-tams/gongs. The cylindrical form of the heads produces a homogenous frequency spectrum in all dynamics.

Recommendation

A large and heavy mallet offers much momentum to stimulate massive gongs or tuned gongs to oscillate. When choosing your mallet we would thus advise you to pick a heavy one, in order to get the full range of sound and the largest possible sound volume from the instruments.
