Chalklin MS15 Vibraphone Mallets - Jazz 25mm Wool (CMS15)

A responsive vibraphone pair voiced for jazz playing. The 25 mm wool-yarn heads give a warm, rounded tone with a gentle attack, while the 375 × 6 mm rattan shafts offer lively rebound and control for melody lines, comping, and soft-to-medium dynamics. Also available with ivory cord wrap if you prefer a more defined attack.

Key Features

• Jazz voice, 25 mm core: warm, rounded tone with soft attack

• Wool-yarn wrap (standard): musical bloom and body; ivory cord option for extra definition

• Rattan shafts (375 × 6 mm): flexible feel and quick recovery for fluid phrasing

• Sold as a pair: matched weight and balance

• Part of Chalklin's long-running MS vibraphone series (from brilliant hard †’ subtle soft)

Why Choose MS15

Choose MS15 when you want a lyrical, singing vibe sound that still projects in small ensembles. Ideal as the "jazz" set in a two- or three-pair lineup alongside a harder MS model for more cut or a softer pair for ballads.
