Marimba One Jewel marimba - Product Information
The Marimba One Jewel Marimba is a versatile instrument designed with creativity and inspiration in mind, suitable for musicians and non-musicians alike. What sets this marimba apart is its adaptability; it can be played by a single individual or multiple players facing each other, fostering a collaborative and interactive musical experience.
The Jewel Marimba offers a rich and diverse range of contemporary percussion sounds, enhancing the experience for those who use it. It is an excellent complement to meditation bowls, hand pans, and tuned gongs, elevating the sound bath journey to new heights.
Craftsmanship is evident in every aspect of the Jewel Marimba's construction, with ethically sourced Honduran Rosewood tone bars that deliver a bigger, warmer, and darker sound. The bars are meticulously tuned by Marimba One's Master Tuners, ensuring a world-class acoustic experience.
This instrument is a valuable addition to any musical ensemble or therapeutic setting, providing a unique and engaging musical journey for all who use it.
This version of the Jewel features Marimba One's Just Tuning. Just tuning means that the musical distance between the notes is based on the naturally occurring harmonic series. The result is an unusually warm and harmonically rich sound. The keyboard is diatonic - the "white keys" on a piano. Meaning that all the notes will sound good together.
