It is truly as beautiful a work as any masterpiece which was written to be played upon it. - Eric Christopherson

Soloist Wood Frame

Our Soloist Wood Frame is the premiere concert marimba. It is a classic, clean instrument with an all wood frame that we custom build precisely to your height. The frame is crafted entirely of wood and is ideal for use by an individual player as their signature marimba.

FEATURES

The Soloist's frame features a grain matched, all wood center support. Integrating the two pieces of wood is our unique custom designed hardware. This center support system is both a very durable structural component and an attractive element of the soloist frame.

The bass end frame also has tuning knobs for adjusting the resonators.

The resonators and bars nestle smoothly and securely into the elegant Marimba One pocketing system.
