Backed by Renowned Timpanist John Tafoya

Clear sound, sweeping dynamic range, and world-class quality: Grover Pro Percussion’s John Tafoya Signature Bamboo Timpani Mallets are perfect for both students and professionals alike! Starting with beautiful hand-paired bamboo shafts, these mallets are somewhat thinner and shorter than Grover Pro Percussion’s classic Artist’s Choice series, offering enhanced balance and control. Next, the amino flat finish provides you with a tight, secure grip, and its protective barrier even elongates the life of your mallets. Hand-sewn felts are utilized for the head with inverted layering for extra clarity, while the custom-rounded core is made of wood for a medium feel. When testing these mallets out at Sweetwater, our percussion pros loved how these John Tafoya signature mallets provide an effortless balance of attack, fullness, and feel — they’re an excellent choice for timpanists looking to raise their audition game.

Grover Pro Percussion John Tafoya Signature Bamboo Timpani Mallets Features:

  • Hand-paired bamboo shafts offer a lightweight and balanced playing experience
  • Amino flat finish provides a tight grip and protects your mallets from wear
  • Custom-rounded wood core for a medium feel
  • Hand-sewn felts with inverted layering for the perfect balance of attack, body, and clarity
