What kind of sound do the DM28 mallets produce?

Featuring a medium-hard large synthetic core wrapped in black cord, the DM28 mallets deliver a clear, articulate attack with a warm, full-bodied tone.

What are the benefits of the rattan handles on these mallets?

Rattan provides a comfortable grip and a slight flexibility, which can enhance control and reduce fatigue during extended playing sessions. Its durability also ensures a long-lasting and reliable performance.
