Adams 4.3 Oct. Concert Padouk Marimba with Apex Frame - Product Information

The Adams MCPA43 4.3 Octave Concert Wide-Bar Series Padouk Marimba has the same features of the best selling Concert Series marimbas including: Concert Series bar width, welded essential resonators, Apex height-adjustable frame, upgraded leg castings with large locking casters, and black vinyl covered hardwood rails.

Padouk wood bars offer an excellent alternative to Rosewood by producing a beautifully warm, woody sound at a fraction cost. The bars are hand-adjusted through the sixth overtone, giving Adams complete control over all aspects of the marimba sound. Precise tuning and voicing provides for balanced sound through the entire range of the instrument.

Can be upgraded to Honduras Rosewood or Zelon Synthetic bars in the future as the needs of the player change.

Drop Cover and Mallets included.

Great Customer Service, Nice Product

Comments:

After several delays by UPS Freight, the box containing the resonators arrived with a big hole in it. After inspecting the contents, one of the resonators was severely bent and unusable. Steve Weiss customer service was very responsive and sent us a replacement which arrived a week later. The rest of the parts were in good condition and so far the final product appears to be nice quality.

Very Nice Marimba!

Comments:

We purchased the marimba for our high school student. After researching various marimbas, at this price point the Adams was the clear winner. We are very happy with it and absolutely feel that we made the correct choice. One comment with regards to how it is shipped as it was not clear to me as to how it would arrive. It was delivered with two boxes on a pallet. The boxes were very easily handled.

You can't beat it with a stick!! (mallets only)

Comments:

This is an awesome marimba! The frame is very sturdy and well designed, and it sounds beautiful. I think it is reprehensible that it is often described as a "practice" marimba. That's like saying if you don't own a Stradivarius, you should only play in you basement for fear of embarrassment. If you're going to play with Yo-Yo Ma, you'll need to pay the big bucks. Otherwise, enough with the snobbery.

Big marimba!

Comments:

We bought this marimba for our son who has recently started taking lessons. He was given a piece that was impossible to practice on a 3-octave vibraphone. This marimba is huge! It sounds very pretty and was relatively easy to assemble. The only thing we didn't anticipate was the enormity of the instrument. Moves well on wheels. Definitely an investment.
