Adams Soloist MSPV43 Marimba – 4.3 Octave, Padouk Bars, Voyager Frame
Safe and secure checkout
The Adams Soloist MSPV43 is a 4.3-octave marimba with padouk bars on the popular Voyager height-adjustable frame, built for schools, universities, churches, percussion ensembles, and advancing players who need a serious instrument without going to full concert-series pricing.
Padouk tone bars deliver a warm, musical sound that’s forgiving for students but refined enough for ensemble and solo repertoire, while the Voyager frame keeps things practical: adjustable height, easy to move, and straightforward to assemble and store.
