The Studio 49 bass bars are carefully made to have an acoustically accurate tone chamber, which gives the instrument excellent intonation. These instruments are excellent for classroom use and are durably made for years of music-making. Mallets are not included with these bass bars, but we recommend using a yarn bass bar mallet, like the Studio 49 S3.
Bars measure 45 x 17 mm and are made of Grillodur, a refined fiberglass, with harmonic overtone tuning.
Resonance chamber constructed of solid pine with integrated handles.
