ProMark SPYR SV1R Soft Vibraphone Mallets

SPYR SV1R Vibe Mallets: Versatility for Every Ensemble

The SPYR SV1R vibe mallets, a collaboration between renowned percussionists and educators Kevin Shah and Tony Nunez, offer exceptional versatility for keyboard instruments. Designed with the educator in mind, this series simplifies mallet selection for band and orchestra directors, as well as concert percussionists, by providing a comprehensive range of sounds. Featuring a soft, oversized synthetic rubber head wrapped in yarn, the SV1R produces a very full, warm sound with minimal articulation, ideal for expressive musical lines. This thoughtful design helps cover the complete spectrum of sounds needed across diverse ensembles, reducing the need for multiple specialized mallet lines.

Crafted for Quality & Performance

Measuring 16 and 3/4 inches long, the SV1R features a 1 and 1/4 inch round core, meticulously yarn-wrapped for consistent performance. While excelling on vibraphone, these mallets also perform well across a marimba range from C4 to C7, delivering a rich, dark tone suitable for various musical contexts. As with all ProMark mallets, the SV1R is proudly designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA, ensuring quality and durability.
