Product Information
Vic Firth's Balter Ensemble mallets deliver articulate attack across the top two octaves of marimba, with a hard yarn–wound head engineered for projection in orchestra and wind ensemble settings. Built on the Articulate Series platform, these mallets prioritise clarity and definition over wash, making them a go–to choice for musicians demanding precise note separation in concert work.
The B11B features a 20-inch birch handle paired with a larger, hard yellow yarn head that produces punchy tone without muddiness. This combination suits marimba voicing above the mid–range, where the harder mallet construction cuts through ensemble texture while maintaining musical response. The birch construction offers a warm hand feel and natural flex.
