This is a practice marimba and does not come with resonators. The keyboard is very even throught the entire range. tuned very well. This instrument is of course not meant for performance but is great in the practice room. Keep in minde that the high rating I give it is for a "practice" marimba with no resonators

| Very nice oak frame on metal legs. No casters. Very sturdy. Excellent craftsmanship. Not very portable but very durable. The instrument can be built to your height needs.

| I bought the instrument directly from Doug DeMorrow. He was very nice to work with. It takes a little while to get, it is hand made by DeMorrow. I had no problems but Doug said he was willing to help with any concerns I had.

| I would recommend this instrument to any percussionist. The price is amazing and so is the instrument. Not all percussionists can afford a 5 octave and this puts a quality practice tool in reach of most people.
