I've had about 4 stick bags since the beginning of my percussion journey in high school - two small 'fold' type bags, one large 'fold' bag and finally this one! Humes & Berg have hit it on the head with a freestanding mallet bag that's versatile, convenient and very affordable at just $49.95 (~$64 AUD) a pop.

I've just started watching your vids today, I'm already impressed. They're not super long, like most reviews, but they're interesting and straight to the point, no bullcrap ten minute filler for your ad revenue. The editing isn't over done, and the jokes aren't that annoying, but then again, you have to do what you can if you want marimba one to get you a line of mallets. You don't cut out all your mistakes in mallet reviews, and that makes your videos more realistic, and easy to relate to, since we all mess up. Every other youtuber just re shoots till its flawless, and in turn, inhuman. You should have more subscribers, I'm surprised you don't. Ron really needs to get you an Adam Tan mallet line.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Ethan my man! You are far too kind - I'm glad you enjoy the videos and I hope they continue to be down to earth and interesting for you :) I'd be very honoured to get an Adam Tan mallet line but it probably won't happen for at least another 50 years hahaha. Thank you for watching!

[@wyattjones8907]

I got this stick bag for Christmas this year ( 2019 ) and I love it so much. Thank you Adam for introducing me to this bag. I love your videos so much and will continue to watch you. Keep up the good work.

[@joemoreno4061]

"Best stick/mallet bag for $50!" "It's only about $100-$120"

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Haha well it is a $50 USD bag... www.steveweissmusic.com/product/humes-berg-grip-bag-mallet-bag/drum-stick-mallet-bag and since my audience is predominantly from the US I thought that was more applicable :) And I overexaggerated the exchange rate at the time, it's only about $70 AUD!

[@joemoreno4061]

Adam Tan I'm definitely looking into getting one of these now! Great review by the way! You should do a video on the Liberty Tour Caddy mallet bag, I'd love to see that.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Joe Moreno Thanks for watching 😁 And good suggestion, I've always been curious about Liberty!

[@BJGD5]

Great video as always. Definitely thinking about getting this bag.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thanks for watching Aaron! I highly recommend it :)

[@stefangriffin3113]

Such a great bag. Thanks for making this video - my previous folds bag ripped, and I bought this one because of you and couldn't be happier.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Stefan Griffin I'm so glad this one works for you! Thanks for watching 😄

[@michaelcorts1870]

Found this new series, subscribed and ready to binge all of them!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Mike Pianoman Thank you for subscribing and watching, I really appreciate it!

[@MalletShark]

I'm surprised there's not more Adams equipment on this channel, considering your name.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Andrew McIver Hahahaha that's brilliant 😅

[@schinbeindrumco]

Yeah man, I'm digging what you're up to brother.

[@jacobshort170]

That's a phenomenal bag. Our marching band just acquired a few of them, and we only use one for all of our mallets and sticks. They're ridiculously spacious and durable. Get that stick bag. Do it.

[@bs.music.kyi9]

I ordered this bag last winter and it’s worked really well for me. It arrived a little more like an oval for me tho bc I ordered it online, but it still works great and is my go to for pit orchestra season! During the summer I tend to use a folding one because I use less mallets during the summer (only on vibraphone and drum set gigs), but this works great in my pit orchestra setup because I can switch my sticks very fast and do not have to worry about the clicking noise of the mallets being picked up by mics.

[@PugCuber]

I got my Galaxy Grip a couple of months ago, and I absolutely adore it. It’s basically the only mallet bag I use consistently (except for the one I’m using for my High School’s MalletStation), and I can’t recommend it enough.

[@kcitsch2176]

Hello! Great video, but one question. Have you tried the Adams Smart Pack? In that case. what do you think of that bag?

[@joshmartinez2221]

Hey Adam! I just discovered your channel about 2 months ago, and I just started mallet percussion this year. I play bassoon and needed to learn mallet percussion to get a keyboard spot for marching band. I worked hard before and after school and I ended up getting a vibe spot!! Anyways I fell in love with it and I was wondering if you have any tips for a 'newbie!' Btw I love your vids SOOO much, they're so high quality!!! Thanks!

[@jacobtorres4540]

Hey Adam what's the largest amount of pairs you've fit in the grip bag?

[@jasmineward2633]

I wanted to get this mallet bag about a year ago but it would’ve shop to New Zealand so I got the ahead one it’s just a good but slightly less durable

[@fordsmith7905]

Unsure what you mean about the heads touching. When you opened the bag they appeared to be touching. I'm currently using the Vic firth concert bag, though I may consider buying this on portability ease of access alone. Very informative

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Ford Smith Haha I mean when you put them in a folding bag they will be pressed against each other, here they are a bit more spaced out 😀 Thanks for watching!

[@wyattjones8907]

Could you talk about all the mallets you had in the thumbnail? I saw a few mallets I was interested in.

[@daltonpage240]

Is there any way I could put a music folder somewhere?

[@dakotawalters6061]

Hey Adam! I also have the Galaxy Grip Bag, and it's been great. I recently got the Majestic Pro Roll Up Mallet Bag from Steve Weiss, just when I need to bring everything to a rehearsal for options, and it holds tons of stuff! Incredible amount of storage and padding.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Dakota Walters I've seen that bag before! Seems like a useful form factor for flat laying your mallets 😄

[@daltonpage240]

Does it stand up on itself?

[@keeganvaughan7495]

you should review skeens custom mallets

[@illuminatihunters9503]

I just am wondering if I should return this. I bought this stick bag and it shipped in with a big crease in it. Has anyone else had this issue and if so did it go away?

[@bmarano11]

I love your videos and nice marimba

[@AdamTanPercussion]

+Brennan Marano Thank you for watching!

[@mechmuzic8290]

do you think you can do a review on strings for restringing?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

+MechMuzic That's a great idea except I don't know anything about strings! Wish I did :(

[@EPICninjaASSASSIN71]

What would be a good mallet bag for some one who doesn't carry much . like 8 mallets and a pair of snare concert sticks .

[@AdamTanPercussion]

NINJA-KID-71 The Balters barrel bag is a pretty decent choice for smaller amounts of mallets 😀

[@SophiaSuante]

Woah, tell me where to find this music! I really like this cover/remix of "This Girl" in the background 😉

[@AdamTanPercussion]

It's from one of my favourite soundcloud artists, Engelwood, and the track is called 'barbecue music' soundcloud.com/engelwoodmusic/barbe-q-music-91-full-song-sort-of?in=engelwoodmusic/sets/jeff-x-engelwood-hightide-ep I love this remix too, it's so simple yet so effective!

[@SophiaSuante]

Thanks!

[@c_reeqy4695]

Humes and Berg put you on their main website

[@AdamTanPercussion]

I saw! They're an awesome company :)

[@smshnk2010]

Hey Adam, what do you think of the new IP Thomas Burritt mallets?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

They do look pretty good! I did want to buy some but $$$ :(

[@smshnk2010]

Adam Tan What is your opinion on tight vs. loose woven yarn?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Jonathan Marin Loose makes for interesting sounds but tight ones last longer, it really depends on what you're looking for :)

[@emilymagee326]

18 months in and I am yet to find a U.K distributor of this bag

[@AndreHance]

6:35 "Cuase i only got 20 Pairs of mallets." And yes i know pro's have lots of mallets, but im a high schooler lol

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Hahaha man, when I was in high school I had literally one pair of vibe mallets and a pair of drumsticks, that was it! Now, five years on, I have over 40 pairs and it's just come with time (and people sending me stuff for the show!) - you'll see your collection grow in no time!

[@jacobshort170]

7:48 Just you wait, Adam Tan.

[@Comehomeapa]

i just wrap my timpanis in plastic wrap to prevent fray

[@daltonpage240]

Same, I do that with all mallets i care about

[@deekerr1613]

Your videos are so well shot and set-up, I figured you must be a lot more popular of a KZbinr than you are. I think/hope you'll go far, and I'm giving you +1 sub to help along the way. I'm about to go to university and I need a pair of marimba mallets (though I'll also have to pick up this stick bag :p), do you have any recommendations (or reviews on your channel) of some budget mallets:

[@AdamTanPercussion]

D Kerr Thank you so much for the kind words, I appreciate it 😀 Van Sice is still my go to pick for general mallets on the cheap side, you could get about three pairs for that price and there is a review of it on my channel 😄

[@deekerr1613]

Thank you very much, I wish you the best of luck and will continue watching your percussion videos!

[@EpicMind500]

Technique videos :)

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thinking about doing that soon :)

[@EpicMind500]

Have you played Paul Lansky's Three Moves?

[@jacqueswang5041]

I spy multiple broken shafts in that bag.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Only the Zivkovic's are broken into two :( Nowadays if any shaft snaps I just say 'that mallet's just done a Zivkovic'...
