I went to Nashville(PASIC) with checkbook in hand, and
needed to order two 5 octave marimbas. I played or
discussed every 5.0 that was there. I remembered seeing
Matts(Coe) write up in the Percussive notes several years
ago, and was excited to see them there. You know how loud
the display room can get, so there was no comparing side to
side, but I did get to play them all. The Coe marimba
sounded fine, but was just as much money if not more then
some of the others. $20,000 is a lot to spend so when I asked
Matt about tuneing he said he was self taught. I just didnt
like that anwser so I went to the next booth.
Both of mine were going in front rooms of houses so extra wide bars in
the lower octave was not nessasary, and Rons reputation at
marimba 1, plus his convention price sealed the deal. I
ordered two low fives, weeks later. Scott Kitchen S.E. OHIO
