Features

  • TENNESSEE SMALL BUSINESS: we're a small team specializing in high quality percussion instruments and mallets using the best materials possible; our wood shop is in Nashville, Tennessee, and your choice supports American jobs
  • WHY IT MATTERS: we don't just simply "source" products from overseas factories and put our logo on it; controlling design and production in-house lets us focus on first-class construction to make professional, highly intentional, long-lasting instruments
  • SOFT RUBBER MALLETS: the Timber Drum Co. Soft Rubber Mallets produce a full and resonant sound with some give and a gentle attack; ideal for drawing out a pleasant tone with reduced sharpness when striking your instrument
  • WHERE TO USE: made for melodic percussion instruments like steel tongue drum, marimba, vibraphone, metallophone, wood log drum, or keyboard percussion instruments with rosewood
  • ONE BIG THING: please check our other mallets for uses where you need a sharper attack like xylophone, glockenspiel, bells, energy chime, or wood blocks; the Timber Drum Co. T2HP Hard Poly or TB3M Brass mallets are best suited for these purposes

  • Tongue drum percussion mallets
Style: Soft Rubber
Purchased a Hopwell Steel Tongue drum for my wife as a Christmas present and it came with a pair of percussion mallets. But unfortunately my step-sons dog was visiting and he found the originals and chewed them into toothpick sized pieces. I searched for replacements and these mallets were even better then the originals. I little bit heavier and with a slightly harder ball, which to me made for a much better sound. The length was good, they are well built and should last a good long time. Purchase was easy and delivery was fast and as expected. Assembled in the good old US of A which is always a plus. Great seller, would buy from again. ... show more

  • A Soft Soothing Tone on the Steel Tongue Drum
Style: Soft Rubber
The sound on these percussion mallets can't be beat. One doesn't have to be a professional to enjoy them. In fact, we purchased them for our toddler grandson to play his steel tongue drum. The rubber mallets soften the tone. Shhhh! We did shorten the sticks a bit just for him, but we have another pair that's full length for the grown ups to use. ... show more

  • A good small-shop product.
Style: Medium Felt
Haven't yet had the occasion to use these, but based on the feel of them, they will generally be good for their advertised usage. As timpani mallets go, these are on the light side, so I might not choose them for playing late Classic or Romantic pieces. Due to the firm felt head, and lighter weight, they should prove to be good for Baroque and early Classic literature. For general tom and cymbal use, they should be fine. It would be interesting to see if the small shop could try making timpani mallets with shafts of denser/heavier woods, like hickory or oak, and offer different mallet heads from wood through a range of felt hardnesses. All in all, theses mallets are worth what the shop charges, and best of all, they're made in the USA. ... show more

  • Solid purchase
Style: Medium Felt
These mallets worked great for my handpan. Exactly what I was looking for and at a great price. The only flaw was that they left a light layer of white powder on the handpan where ever the mallet hits.

  • Good feel, great sound.
Style: Medium Felt
Yes they do leave a bit of residue but just wipe it off! The sound quality is well worth brushing off the keys. Keep playing….the residue gets less in a short time.

  • Great Mallets, Great Price. MADE IN USA! - BUY THESE!
Style: Soft Rubber
I was in the market for some cheap mallets for my percussion students to use without breaking the bank. After a quick search i discovered a few options for hard plastic and rubber and got all four to test out. These are the models i got to compare. Timber Drum Co - T2HP (Hard Plastic) Timber Drum Co - TMD2 (Rubber) Shappy "Bell Mallets" (Rubber) Fanrel "Glockenspiel Mallets" (Plastic?) Right off the bat i noticed a ton of differences. The Shappy and Fanrel Mallets came from China. That right there should tell you the quality isn't going to be as good as even their pictures online looked like the were copying the American made mallets. The Chinese ones came in cheap plastic bags (one wasn't even sealed). The Timber Drum Co mallets are Made in the USA and arrived in a sturdy protective tube (see photos). The differences between the mallets where even more noticeable. Both the Shappy and Fanrel had unfinished wood handles and oversized mallet heads that were too big for the instruments my students play on. Nice try guys ;-). The mallet head quality was really rough (see Photos). The Shappy "rubber" mallets were basically plastic mallets and too hard for the instruments i would use rubber mallets on. The Timber Drum Co Mallets were obviously the higher quality option. Both the hard plastic and rubber options had finished wood handles that were the perfect size for a comfortable grip. Each mallet head was the perfect size and sound that i was looking for. This made sense when i realized the Timber Drum Co mallets were made in the USA. The Shappy/Fanrel were both made in China (according to the plastic bag they came in) and seems like they were just trying to make something that looked like a mallet to sell. Basically, the Timber Drum Co mallets are the best low cost option for mallets on Amazon. I will be recommending them to all my students from now on. *******U P D A T E***************** I purchased these mallets and wrote a review back in 2019. I actually liked them so much that i decided to get a few sets more for my students in 2020. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the company made the mallets even better! Dowel quality is improved with smooth rounded ends. They seem even more sturdy an even have a cool logo now. I can't say this enough, Timber Drum Co makes the best "low cost" mallet on Amazon. All these changes and the price is still $9.99. Crazy! I also added a few more photos to show the new changes. ... show more
