Each pair features the same innovative carbon fiber (graphite) shaft as before – and every pair is handmade by JGpercussion.
Each model was created in collaboration with David Herbert – Principal Timpanist of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
DH2 “Beethoven” (2F)
Soft American felt over a small felt core. This mallet gives a sound that has a combination of articulation and warm, full tone. Works well for rhythmic passages in Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky and whenever a buoyant, clear sound is required.
“This is a wonderful stick for solo moments in the orchestra; it has a full sound with a clear rhythmic impetus. It is also a great mallet for solo repertoire.” – David Herbert
