Tier lists... I've always thought it's difficult to navigate the marimba mallet market because there are just SO many models and brands out there, and they are all called the same thing! So why not organise all of the brands into 'tiers' or 'segments' - so you can figure out which one is right for your budget!

my one goal in life is to own enough mallets to fill a wall like adam 🙌🏻👏🏻

[@AdamTanPercussion]

It's gonna happen 😁

[@dyshirley2657]

@@AdamTanPercussion $400 per set of four. Look at the mallets by Steven Marimba Chavez on Facebook. You have to scroll down OR IN PHOTOS. Rosewood shafts that he handmade from scratch. Then Mexican and Guatemala rubber wrapped separately for the cores for different hardnesses and bigger for the bass area so there is not that annoying TICK sound due to too hard of a mallet. SPECIAL FEATURE: On the inside of the wrapped heads, ARE NAVAJO AND ZUNI INDIAN INLAID WITH TURQUOISE STONES. THEN ON THE ENDS, HE USES TURQUOISE STONES, CORRAL, AND OTHER COLORED STONES. $400 PER SET OF FOUR. Stones alone cost $60-80. Handmade rosewood, two hours per shaft to make and sand down. Wrapped-30 minutes per mallet. Yarn-45 minutes. Also, graduated hardnesses per set with the largest for bass. PERFECTION AND EXPENSIVE BUT THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MALLETS EVER MADE.

[@marimbaninja4304]

Mallet hypebeast detected xD

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Yes... 😂

[@andreshargrave3583]

The Innovative Percussion IP200s are great for students and begginers. Since they're not very hard or soft they provide a good balance. You don't have to play too hard to produce a clear balanced sound. I recommend these since they're not too expensive but you're guaranteed a good quality pair of mallets.

[@harrisonmurphy5727]

You do amazing with these videos! Love the sound effects too :D

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thank you so much man, I'm glad you like the sounds!

[@ryancarlisle7909]

I love love love Resta-Jay mallets!! I’ll be buying some Sejournes soon! I live this breakdown too. Really puts mallets into perspective

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Ahahaha I swear your mallet budget is unlimited!! 😍

[@ryancarlisle7909]

Adam Tan I just really love mallets 😂

[@Badumdumcrash]

Hey Adam do you think you could review the Kolberg Mallets Jasmin Kolberg Solo series? That would be amazing. They're quite hard to try out but they're still quite popular.

[@dizzygames96]

I love your videos

[@daltonpage240]

Do a review video on the She-e Wu Innovative Percussion mallets, I just ordered some and I'd love to see your opinion on them

[@AdamTanPercussion]

FREE DOWNLOAD - THE 2018-2019 MALLET MANUFACTURER TIER LIST: www.adamtanpercussion.com/download Thank you for watching today's video! I hope it helps with your next mallet purchase - when I was in school I was completely lost by the huge array of mallet choices out there. Let me know in the comments below if there are any brands that weren't in the video! #TheStudioFamily

[@garrettyoung362]

There is a small U.S brand called Pegasus Percussion that has a couple series of marimba mallets. Their quality to price ratio is fantastic!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

I hadn't heard of Pegasus before! Will have to check it out :)

[@dillonstephenson1539]

Very useful!!!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Dillon Stephenson Thank you man! I’m glad it’s useful!

[@eveweymeersch5874]

I looove the red Encore mallets 😍

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Me too!!!

[@hope7244]

For students i recommend the thomann own mallet they are fairly good have lasted me a couple of years. Priced around £12 per pair... deffinatly a deal

[@kevinfavela1649]

Smith mallets are very inexpensive and extremely durable and great sounding, the hemp series is my favorite, they are very similar to the salyers jeff moore series, but wayyyy cheaper

[@weafy8404]

Adam i know i am late but what about kolberg percussions jasmine solo mallets? from the robert oetomos over the rainbow playthrough

[@cjohnalex]

You have become so funny Adam, I love that! 🤣

[@luisaguilar-ki1fg]

Greetings, what's the best Yamaha or Resta Jay jean Geoffroy??

[@saisriv0304]

Also you should review the mark fords from innovative!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

I am planning to! Thank you for suggesting :)

[@7ainiko]

i tried to come as fast as the notification popped up

[@AdamTanPercussion]

You are so fast!! Thank you 😁

[@juliananderson1522]

I'm so glad you made this! As a high schooler soon to be in college, this helps me not *totally* break the bank lol On another note, I'm unable to get the PDF from your webpage; while all the other free downloads lead somewhere (i.e. you get a link when you hover over them), the MMMList button doesn't have a link attached (i.e. you can click and click and click and it won't do anything). Is this an issue for anyone else?

[@juliananderson1522]

I've tested this in both Chrome and Firefox, and both browsers have the same issue, which leads me to believe the problem may not be on my end...

[@AdamTanPercussion]

OH MAN I didn't realise the link wasn't working until just now - it's fixed now! Sorry about that....

[@jakecid]

Freer Percussion has some high end mallets. Mainly timpani and xylophone but those are already like 80 a pair for timpani and 60 for xylo depending on the series

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Oh yes Freer... those are S tier easily lol

[@jakecid]

@@AdamTanPercussion if they made marimba mallets i think they would be up in the 80s easily.

[@masonfunk6879]

Can you review the Malletech Emotion series?

[@mrman7361]

i need to get a pair of 4 mallets but there so expensive....thanks for the help

[@cloudjumpermusic2808]

A. Putnam are a really good A to B tier and they have grad sets for about $75 usd

[@NathanielHolmanPercussion]

I once got to try a pair of ABCs that someone else had. They felt amazing and sounded like any other mallet really, similar to any of the M1 mallets, but with an insane amount of warmth. I dunno if they are worth $100 + but dang they fine

[@ItsNotAXylophone]

Thanks for the shout brother!

[@saisriv0304]

Ive asked a ton but could you please review the malletech Matt Savages?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Those are marching snare sticks right? Haha I'm not very good at analysing snare sticks... 😅

[@saisriv0304]

There’s mallets too!!

[@diegocuesta-percusionista-7431]

¿Que tal son las baquetas ABC Mallet?

[@TheThumbsUpChannel]

There is a mallet brand names jets percussion on eBay and there dummy cheep. I bought a couple pairs and will look into them but it may be a good option. It would be cool if you did a review on them.

[@dillonstephenson1539]

Hey adam tan, do you own vic firths virtuoso series, if so will you make a review id love to see one

[@dillonstephenson1539]

Also if possible could you play a cricket sang and set the sun!!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

I don't own the virtuoso series yet - and I will try and learn a bit of the blake tyson!

[@dillonstephenson1539]

@@AdamTanPercussion im so glad you actually reply to comments it really makes my day thanks for your time!!! You da best

[@spikeruchiha80]

I'm new to this mallet stuff, so I have a question. ¿How can you prevent rattan shaft mallets from bending?

[@laylalol2209]

Buy new/different mallets :) If they keep bending they probably aren't very good mallets, or you just need to take better care of them.

[@markelperez886]

Would be perfect if you review elite mallets Jabi Alonso Series😂😂🙏🙏

[@markelperez886]

And ERHO's PRO V too😂

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Erho! I haven't heard of that brand before but wanna try it now hahaha! And yes hopefully will get into more Elite Mallets once I've got Matthew's series :)

[@andrewsmith1133]

Jet Percussion and Smith Mallets are some cheaper mallet companies

[@cyrillmetz2390]

@Adam Tan I‘d say that Resta Jay is also a B Tier Mallet Company.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Kind of I guess... but most of their popular models aren't B Tier :(

[@ferrysille3710]

How about the set of four mallets of musser? 200 € easy brah

[@edharbison995]

Did you not mention Marimba One?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Ed Harbison I did at 8:32 as an A Tier brand 😁

[@edharbison995]

@@AdamTanPercussion Whoops, I missed that.

[@masonmcwest3544]

This video is very “MmmmmmmMmmMm”

Yes😂

[@maxencedetraz4351]

Lol in France we have only resta jay xDD

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Yesssss how do you guys afford it hahaha

[@m.b.45]

In France they are not so expensive. For example, the Jean Geoffry series is cheaper than the Keiko Abe mallets or the the Malletech LS mallets.

[@maxencedetraz4351]

@@AdamTanPercussion ahh we can buy there mallet in the resta jay store x) but for us is difficult to find malletech or other american brand

[@ritazhang9938]

OMG 好多槌

[@EliPorter456]

I know your a Marimba man but Vibe version please?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Eli Porter That’s a good idea! Although I think it’d be mostly the same haha cause all the brands on this list also make vibe mallets at the same prices

[@jerrylee9456]

can you believe i spent 120 dollars per pair on marimba one wave wrap in china! Now I think im a dumbass. So regret that didn't see your videos before😂

[@hanxia6087]

The cheapest mallet in taobao costs me 2 dollar....

[@AdamTanPercussion]

夏偲 Wow then you are lucky!!!
