The hickory shafts are also triple selected for highest possible pitch and weight. Precisely pitch paired and weight matched. An extreme version of a Cloyd Duff #2, the hard-felt core and covering of the Freer US2H make it a great rhythm stick for Beethoven 1 Scherzo, Bartok Music for Strings Percussion and Celeste, Stravinsky, or any other music where you want an articulate and clean sound. Now improved with a slightly wider nut on the top for more even pressure between the core and the seat of the shaft. Extremely versatile. Head size: Head size: 34.5mm Length: Mallet Length: 13 1/2″
