Studio 49 "B" Rosewood Contra-Bass Bar

Traditional Orff-Schulwerk style individual bar; this bar sounds two octaves below "middle" B (the octave below a traditional Orff bass xylophone). Care for this instrument as you would for fine furniture - protect from heat and temperature changes, and clean the bar two to three times per year with a high-quality furniture polish (preferably with a lemon oil base). Mallet not included.

• Rosewood bar; pitch B; tuned to A=440, the industry standard.
• Bar is also overtone-tuned (first dominant overtone tuned to the fundamental note).
• All-wood resonating chamber produces a full, rich sound.
• A good substitute for timpani in the classroom instrumentarium.
