Detail 01
Roller model

PromarkAutograph Series Jonathan Haas Timpani Mallets JH6 Roller
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Signature timpani mallets designed for rolls. For orchestral and ensemble percussionists who need a dedicated rolling mallet.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sustained timpani rolls in orchestral or wind ensemble settings
- Percussionists building a graded set of timpani mallets
- Students in a program that requires their own mallets
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drum set players — these are not for a kit
- Percussionists needing articulate staccato attacks
- Anyone wanting one general-purpose mallet for everything
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Timpani-specific
Sized and weighted for large tuned drums. Not interchangeable with keyboard, bass drum, or snare implements.
Detail 03
Signature series
Designed to one player's specification, so weight and balance follow a specific approach rather than a generic middle ground.
Detail 04
JH6 designation
One hardness point in a numbered series. The number matters when matching against other mallets in the same line.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Sold as one pair. A full timpani setup usually needs several hardnesses.
- 02A roller alone won't cover articulate passages — plan a second pair
- 03Check your ensemble or teacher's required mallet list before ordering
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use these on a bass drum or marimba?
They're built for timpani. Using them elsewhere works in a pinch but the weight and head are wrong for other instruments.
02Do I need more than one pair of timpani mallets?
Most players carry several hardnesses. A roller handles sustained passages; you'll want harder mallets for articulate and loud writing.
03Is this a beginner mallet?
It's a serious mallet, not a starter accessory. It suits a student who already plays timpani in an ensemble and needs their own pair.
04How many mallets come in the package?
One pair — two mallets.
