Hello everyone, this is my first time posting here. I am going to
purchase a marimba for my college auditions and other important things
soon. I am deciding between 2 marimbas and I need your advice. Has anyone
played on or heard about the Ross R420 synthetic 4 1/3 octave marimba, or the
Adams MCKV43 synthetic 4 1/3 octave. Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
KC

KC,
Why do you want to purchase a "synthetic" marimba? If you're going to spend all that $$$, why not buy a "real" marimba? There is no fibreglass marimba that actually sounds like a real marimba, or feels remotely like one..even the Yamaha, which probably comes the closest, in sound anyway.
