Vic Firth VF‑M126 Robert Van Sice Keyboard Mallets
Synthetic Core – Hard
Maximum Clarity and Projection for Demanding Performance
The Vic Firth VF‑M126 Robert Van Sice Keyboard Mallets are designed for situations where maximum clarity, attack, and projection are required.
Featuring hard mallet heads with a synthetic core, the M126 produces a bright, focused tone that allows complex passages and upper‑register marimba lines to cut cleanly through dense ensemble textures.
The synthetic core ensures excellent durability and consistent response, even under heavy use, while retaining musical control and balance. Matched with flexible rattan shafts, these mallets offer responsive feel and refined handling, supporting precision at high dynamics and faster tempos.
As part of the Robert Van Sice signature series, the M126 is ideal for advanced players performing technically demanding repertoire.
