The Jim Casella Series IP1008 heavy medium dark xylophone mallets are on rattan handles and are designed for both indoor and outdoor percussion ensembles. The synthetic core has a medium hardness for both projection and warmth on xylophones. The IP1008 is similar to the IP1007 but with a smaller, heavier core for better articulation and without decreasing volume. Rattan handles are light and durable, perfect for long hours of practice or heavy-hitting performances. Medium hard synthetic mallets are typically used for general playing on xylophone. Jim Casella's extensive expertise in music arrangement has contributed to the design of this well-rounded mallet series.
