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.

This Adams 4.3 Octave Marimba features graduated Padouk wood bars that are only slightly narrower than the Concert Series synthetic or Rosewood models (3/10 of an inch in the lowest octave only) and offer the same precise tuning to the 6th overtone and voicing as all of the Adams instruments including the Artist Marimbas.
