Description
Studio 49 has decades of experience producing high quality instruments and the 2000 Series xylophones are a perfect example of this legacy. The premium 2000 Series instruments offer both high quality sound and craftsmanship. These instruments satisfy the highest musical standards and are excellent for use in music and grade schools.
The Alto Xylophone is set in diatonic C1-A3, with included F# and Bb (16 bars total). Grillodur bars, made of a highly refined fiberglass material, are an alternative to rosewood bars. They hold the pitch through strong changes of temperature and humidity. For maximum volume, the alto and bass instruments include several proportioned resonator chambers and sound-reinforcing lips on the dividers.
All instruments have solid pine resonator boxes and handles for easy transportation. The handles also serve as the support point for the Studio 49 stands (Item #255671). Adjusting the instruments on the stands is easy. Instruments can be changed out with the turn of a large wing nut, allowing uninterrupted instruction when interchanging between instruments.
Includes 1 pair of S40 mallets (Item #254841)
A chromatic add-on unit with the remaining chromatics is available separately (Item #201752).
