ProMark Jim Wunderlich "System Blue" - Hard Marimba

by ProMark
Model Number: JW5
UPC: 616022125074

Hey there, sad news...we've shut down shop permanently. So you won't be able to score any drum gear via the website anymore.

ProMark JW5 mallets feature a round synthetic core with brass inserts and a layer of latex wrapped in synthetic yarn. The JW5 provides maximum articulation. Finished birch handles have an ultra-smooth finish with a silky texture that feels similar to rattan but without the level of flexibility.

  • The JW5 is the hardest marimba mallet in the Jim Wunderlich signature series. Use this light and easily maneuverable mallet in the high register for quick, articulate or colorful passages
  • Length: 17" Head Size: 1.4 x 1.70"
  • The JW5R features a hard synthetic core wrapped tightly with an extra durable polyester cord on a lacquered birch shaft for a smooth finish with maximum strength
  • Durable enough for outdoor environments, but the lush tone of these mallets is an appropriate and tasteful choice for indoor concert or marching settings
  • All ProMark drumsticks are designed and manufactured in the USA to the most stringent quality controls in the industry

Designed by the internationally known and in-demand front ensemble technician, Jim Wunderlich, this nine mallet series with System Blue should not be considered for marching alone. While they have durable components for outdoor environments, the lush tone of these mallets is an appropriate and tasteful choice for indoor concert or marching settings.
