Vic FirthEd Saindon Signature Vibraphone Mallet
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Ed Saindon’s M39 is a cord-wrapped mallet built for both vibraphone and marimba. A natural rubber core and thin cord wrap are paired to produce fullness and clarity across the instrument’s range at all dynamic levels. Rattan handles and an appropriately weighted core give the mallet a balanced, playable response. It was developed to add agility while retaining the full, clear character associated with Saindon’s earlier M38 model.

Who this is for
