This is a very unusual and rare pair of vintage Hinger bass marimba mallets. The rattan shafts are relatively short at 14" and the mallets have oversozed, fake fur covered heads with a soft center making them perfect for low end marimba playing or for playing a large suspended cymbal. The mallets are all original with clear Hinger markings on the shafts. The heads show signs of use but they are not worn. This is a great sounding collector quality pair of mallets from the Hinger Touch Tone Company.
