This mallet offers soft rolls and lines in the lower register with a full-bodied sound. |

This mallet is ideal for strong resonant sounds without harsh attacks. |

This is the standard for general mallet performance that covers all registers of the instrument and produces a strong, clear, and powerful sound. |
| IP5005 (Hard) |

IP5006 (Very Hard) |

For a harder sound to cut through a large ensemble, the IP5006 is built to pull out all the fundamentals yet still project them to the furthest points in a concert hall. |
