Mollard "Lancio" CF 30cm Baton Silver

The baton is very heavily weighed towards the metal handle and feels very different to the other wooden batons I have used in the past. The baton is extremely nimble and feels very comfortable in the hand, and the shaft is painted a rilliant white making it easily visible to performers in ensembles of all sizes: I have used it to conduct a brass band (extensively), a choir, massed choir and brass band and a full symphonic wind band orchestra with accompanying choir without a problem. My only criticisms are the extortionate price tag and the build quality of the baton. For the price paid for the item, the handle is extremely easy to dent and scratch and the paint comes off the carbon fibre shaft very easily.
Slightly disappointed with build quality, but overall an excellent and unique baton.
