Innovative Percussion is extremely proud to introduce the new Jauvon Gilliam Series Timpani Mallets.The series features a totally new look on a classic implement. All six models are constructed with a stained black bamboo shaft and are wrapped with a black German “Midnight” felt. The series is built to be agile like a European mallet but have the presence of an American mallet. Each stick has a clean attack to help produce a clear, immediate pitch and a warm tone allowing you to easily support an ensemble’s sound and blend.
From Jauvon: “People that know me know that I often make up words to better express myself, hence popcush. It describes my ideal timpani sound: one that has a clear fundamental (pitch center), immediately followed by a warm and supportive tone. I’ve always gravitated towards wood cores, as they get the sound out of the drum quickly and create a ‘pop’ that gives an immediate presence, so 5 of the 6 mallets have wood cores. For select models, we’ve also added an additional layer of inner liner felt, which helps create that beautiful ‘cush(ion)’ sound that I really love.”
