Instrument Stands—Professional or
Economy All steel pans require specialized instrument stands that allow them to hang freely and resonate properly when played. The Tripod stand is an excellent height-adjustable stand, with a collapsible base allowing for quick set up. We offer two tripod styles: Economy with single piece top and tripod base and Professional with three piece top and tripod base. Mallets—Wood or Metal The choice between wood and metal mallets is largely one of individual preference. Either is very suitable for a student player. The metal mallets are of aluminum construction and are very lightweight. Some players prefer the lighter feel, while others prefer the feel of the slightly heavier wood mallets. The mallets, wood or metal, are very durable and long lasting. The rubber tips, however, do wear from the constant contact with the pan and will eventually produce an inferior sound necessitating replacement. Cases—Hybrid or Padded-Soft All steel pans (steel drums), if they are going to be transported regularly, require a case. Dropping a steel pan can be a serious matter. It can put the instrument out of tune or even irreparably damage one or more notes. Bumping the instrument can also be damaging. For the higher pitched pans including double tenor and above, we recommend the Padded Hybrid Case, constructed of dense foam padding, durable fabric and a hard insulated layer on both the top and bottom. For double guitar and lower pitched pans, we recommend a Padded soft case which is constructed of dense foam padding and durable fabric. |
