FSC-Certified Wood Promotes Responsible Forestry
As an environmentally-conscious brand, Primary Line constructed this xylophone using wood from forests managed according to strict environmental, social and economic standards set by the Forest Stewardship Council. The pao rosa bars and cross-laminated birch plywood resonator box are FSC-certified, promoting responsible forestry. You can feel good about making music on an instrument that supports sustainable ecological practices.New Resonator Box Design Optimizes Resonance
Primary Line redesigned the resonator box on this model to improve resonance and tone balance across all 16 bars. The 100% glued, cross-laminated birch plywood construction allows the box to vibrate freely, amplifying the warm, rich tones of the pao rosa bars. Reinforced end plates make the resonator box durable while still resonant. Rubber pins securing the bars allow for easy removal, replacement or tuning.Wide Range Accommodates a Variety of Music
With a range from C1 to A2, including F# and Bb bars, this xylophone can play a wide variety of music. The 16 bars provide a full two octaves, with the fundamental tones most prominent in the higher register and overtone resonance bringing out the depth of the lower tones. Clear note names and symbols on each bar help students identify the correct bars to play.Premium Features at an Affordable Price
