Freer Percussion V2 General Vibraphone Mallets

Freer Percussion V2 General Vibraphone Mallets are designed for percussionists who need a clear, balanced tone with responsive feel. These mallets combine a custom rubber core and metal insert to deliver versatile sound for both ensemble and solo work.

Materials and Build Quality

The mallet heads are built with a hard rubber core and a special metal insert, creating a general-purpose tone that balances warmth and clarity. Each mallet is mounted on a 13-inch carbon fiber shaft, which is lightweight yet strong. This provides smooth handling, reliable durability, and great rebound. Inspired by the well-known Megs mallet, the V2 model improves on the original by removing the steel shaft and modifying the core for better control and comfort.

Performance and Use Cases

The V2 mallets are perfect for vibraphone passages that call for a general sound—not too soft, not too hard. They respond well at all dynamic levels and are easy to maneuver, making them a great choice for concert, solo, or chamber playing. Whether you’re blending in an ensemble or bringing out a melody, these mallets help you sound your best.
