Dragonfly Timpani Mallets Jauvon Gilliam Series J1 Gold - Hard

The Dragonfly Jauvon Gilliam Series Timpani Mallets J1 Gold is a fleece-wrapped mallet, designed as the hardest option in the line. Its low-profile, rounded wood core provides sufficient weight for a full-bodied sound while maintaining exceptional clarity and articulation, ideal for fast rhythmic passages or achieving a brighter, more classical tone. The fleece covering delivers a warmer, sweeter attack compared to billiard cloth or chamois. Features include a 12mm diameter and a 370mm long handle.
The Dragonfly Percussion Jauvon Gilliam Signature Timpani Mallet series provides a unified timbre across its range, featuring graduated articulation and weight variations. Each mallet is equipped with a 12mm diameter lightweight carbon fiber handle, designed untapered to emulate the balance and feel of bamboo. Wood cores and tightly wound cartwheel wraps ensure a clear, immediate attack throughout the line. A red seam indicator at the top of each handle and color-coded butt-ends allow for easy identification. This series is distinguished by its light, agile nature, offering a consistent, clean attack and warm sustain.
