Blue Jazz Vibes Series

Blue Jazz Vibes Series

Vibraphone Mallets by SchlagKraft master mallets maker!

The Blue Jazz Vibes (JV) Series is our new dedicated jazz vibraphone line. Three models, one concept: authentic jazz sound with modern reliability. Featuring the classic mushroom head for full contact, rich tone and maximum warmth. The Blue Jazz mallets are wrapped in extremely strong, virtually indestructible blue yarn for clarity, projection and durability. The mallet heads are weighted because we  at Schlagkraft belive: no weight, no sound 🙂 Handmade with love, knowledge and pride by Schlagkraft.
The three models are NOT “soft, medium and hard”; they are three GENERAL-PURPOSE PERFORMING MALLETS. You simply have to check which one best suits your sound preference, also depending on the size of the venue, the performance situation and the size of the band you play with.
JV-M1, JV-M2, JV-M3 – three voices for every jazz situation. If our Big Mama Series is too heavy for you and you need a clearer, more modern sound, the Blue Jazz Series is your mallet choice.

JV-M1 – jazz smooth [lavender band] Soft / Warm / Full-bodied. For ballads, comping and playing without drums. Dark legato, maximum blend.

JV-M2 – jazz medium [light blue band] Medium / Warm with punch. The versatile all-rounder. The same smoothness as M1, with more attack and projection.

JV-M3 – jazz clear cut [yellow band] Hard / Bright / Articulate. For bebop, fast runs and up-tempo. Maximum clarity and cut.

Why as a set?
Cover every jazz situation – from an intimate duo to a driving quartet, from ballads to big-band bebop – without changing your fundamental sound. Just your voice.
