Vic Firth VF-M6 American Custom® Keyboard Mallets – Hard Phenolic, 1" Ball
Bright, Confident Articulation with Classic Feel
The Vic Firth M6 American Custom® keyboard mallets are designed for clear, authoritative articulation with a traditional mallet response.
Featuring 1" hard phenolic ball heads, they produce a bright, highly focused tone with strong projection, making them ideal for xylophone and upper-register keyboard parts where clarity is essential.

Phenolic delivers an ultra-hard striking surface with immediate response and a pronounced pitch centre. The larger 1" ball head adds weight and presence compared to smaller phenolic options, while maintaining speed and control.
