Mini Sigma Begleri
Mini Sigma Begleri
The "Mini Sigma" begleri are a very unconventional set of beads, and frankly speaking, everything about them is wrong. They are too small, and too light, and even the name is wrong. They aren't actually a scaled down version of the Sigmas begleri.. they are a bead design unto themselves. These beads were purpose built for our MKUltras, but after stringing them up as a begleri, we realized that against all logic, they actually make an incredibly fun little set. While we don't recommend these as a first or only set of begleri, players who are looking for a fresh experience, or an unobtrusive little set to keep on the keychain or in the coat pocket, these beads may fit the bill. They are fun, light, and relatively quiet, and with minor adjustments to timing, technique, and possibly cord length, you'll find they are a highly capable little set of beads.
Note: The titanium models, in particular, are extremely light. If you find them too light on 550 paracord, we recommend trying them on our 2mm Kevlar cord for a fast, fun, player friendly experience!
