Nanae Mimura’s Natural Wool Solution
Marimbist virtuoso Nanae Mimura’s signature series of mallets is designed to both extract exceptional tone and play with stunning durability. The formula for success comes from an internal core of latex-wrapped rubber that’s wound around the exterior with fine, 100% natural North American alpaca wool. This combination of materials results in a slightly heavier feel, delivering an extremely focused tone that still retains that characteristic soft attack that Sweetwater percussionists look for in a marimba mallet. These versatile signature mallets feel wonderful in hand and come available in seven degrees of head hardness with the choice of either birch or rattan handles. From school and university ensembles to professional performances, the Nanae Mimura signature series makes a fantastic fit.
Note: The NM5B Nanae Mimura signature marimba mallets feature medium-soft heads with birch handles. Other configurations are available. Please consult your Sweetwater Sales Engineer for questions or concerns.
