The Vic Firth Articulate Series Keyboard Mallets are a comprehensive collection of sounds across Xylophone and Bells/Glockenspiel. With over 40 options spanning various materials, sizes, and weights, the Vic Firth Articulate Series is your one-stop-shop for finding the perfect sound, no matter the venue or repertoire.

The M450 is one of two options made from aluminum. Featuring an oval shape, this mallet is great when the glockenspiel needs to shimmer — think "waterfall" section in Sorcerer's Apprentice.
