Adams Soloist MSHV43 4.3 Oct Rosewood Marimba

New Adams Honduras Rosewood ,After many years of research, Adams Instruments presents new Artist, concert and Soloist series rosewood bars. While nothing visually has changed, the sound and ease of playing from these bars has been drastically improved. Eight years ago, Adams began to purchase a higher quality rosewood than was previously ever available. Mr. Andre Adams and Mr. Frans Swinkels visited the Honduran forests several times to select the best possible wood for the production of their marimba bars. Adams' policy is to keep wood in special climate-controlled rooms for 8 years to insure precise aging. We have heard instruments from this wood and the result is quite honestly phenomenal! A much faster, clearer tone and pitch. Exactly what all marimba players want. ,ADAMS, 4.3 Octave Soloist Series Marimba - The Soloist Series Marimbas offer the precision construction methods and great features found on the Artist and Concert series instruments combined with a number of keyboard and size options ideal for beginners and schools.
