Description
➔ same core as the V7, but with a “double-sound” construction: more volume in the sound, an easily piano-like playing at low intensity, and the hardness which resurfaces from the mezzo forte
precision of a passionate percussionist: this model works very well on the Xylosynth (electronic xylophone/marimba).
marimba vibraphone sticks – concert
medium soft
head: yellow wool – black edging – Ø 40 / H 35 mm
weight of a stick: about 32-34g (head only: 18g)
some R: rattan Ø 8.5 or B: wood Ø 8 / length 400 mm
Rattan or wood?
Rattan is flexible, a little thicker, very robust, but comes from a plant that grows outside of Europe. Very suitable for playing on a vibraphone.
The wood is more rigid, quite thin, can be a little less resistant, but is a 100% local resource (maple or hornbeam)
the set of 4 or the pair
V8 R – V8 B
MANUFACTURING
Each wand is made entirely by hand in the Vibrawell workshop, located in Beaufortain (Savoie).
I use high quality natural materials, the sleeves are carefully balanced and the heads patiently hand sewn.
The wands are designed to last at least 10 years.
The production time is generally 2 to 10 days before shipping. Please note that a personalized baguette cannot be returned.
