Paiste M12 Gong Mallet

This mallet is recommended for large gongs and effects.
Paiste recommends this mallet for this size and model, but they suggest it for percussionists who play the gong briefly in a musical piece. The cord sticks can be used on different types and sizes of gongs and produce a fantastic sound very different from wool mallets.

The mallet is a crucial part of your gong’s sound, and choosing a brand like Paiste will make your gong resonate with all its harmonics and deliver every nuance it can produce.
The head is covered with carefully selected lambswool, and the handle is made from very lightweight aluminum. It includes a practical strap attached to the handle so you can hang the mallet on the stand.

The sound and response of a gong depend on the size, weight, and material of the mallet used to strike it. For this reason, it’s essential that the mallets you use to play your gong meet these requirements. Paiste guarantees their mallets are manufactured following the highest quality standards.
