XPO-25 is same head as our GPO-25 just with longer shafts that results in different balance and more practical usage on the xylophone. Rather light synthetic head of XPO-25, makes it easy to perform fast passages with lot of notes. This mallet will allow you to move quickly above keyboard while striking many notes in fast runs, without much efforts. Its best usage is shown in fast runs, e.g. anywhere where more notes per beat are requested. XPO-25 belongs to the lighter model of mallets which allows you to hit stronger, without any distortion, or danger it will become too loud. Due to its rather light weight it will not bring all of the fundamental note, but will open a bright spectrum of overtones making the xylophone sound more light, bright, and shiny.
XPO-25 is light harder duroplast, works on several different instruments and is along with our Aluminum Head GAL, the lighter model of all the entire xylophone and glockenspiel series.
We at SchlagKraft, cut, send, turn, glue, and wrap the yarn 100% by hand. XPO-25 as well as all others, are handcrafted with pride in our workshop.
