Introducing the Percussion Plus Classic Red Box bass chromatic half metallophone

Manufactured by Percussion Plus, this strong and incredibly sturdy bass metallophone gives a superb, consistent and resonant sound. Their excellent tuning, stability and robustness makes them ideal for classroom environments, such as school ensembles, music lessons or band clubs.

The note bars are mounted to a highly durable and vibrantly coloured frame, which is designed to allow the sound to carry exceptionally well. Like all the other models in the Percussion Plus Classic Red Box line-up, the bass metallophone has precision cut tone bars for exceptionally accurate tuning.

This model includes 6 notes - C#(Db)29, D#(Eb)31, G#(Ab)36, C#(Db)41, D#(Eb)43, and G#(Ab)48 - and allows room for the F#(Gb) and A#(Bb) note bars that are included with the diatonic half.
