Used, but virtually new. Cherry wood handles.
 
Innovative Percussion Concert Series Timpani Mallets use of richly stained cherry wood handles. Each handle is hollowed out at the front and back of the shaft to create the feel and balance of bamboo mallets without the inconsistencies and durability issues normally associated with that material. The result is an exceptionally consistent and well-balanced timpani mallet.
 
The CT-6 Ultra Staccato model features are unique handle design with a hard felt ball head for increased articulation.

- 5/8" Cherry wood handles, in a rich dark stain
