Majestic Professional 4 octave xylophone quint tuned - Rosewood

Introducing the Majestic Professional 4 octave xylophone, quint tuned The Majestic Professional 4.0 octave xylophone is a set apart by its beautiful wood frame and classic curves. Featuring select rosewood bars, this instrument offers a traditional warmth in sound and rich tonal quality. Quint tuned, this means that the fundamental is tuned as well as the harmonic an octave and a fifth above, rather than only an octave above as is the case with octave tuned xylophone. This ensures fewer harmonic clashes and a more consistent sound when playing across the range of the instrument. Also, wider bars are employed in the low register to add strength and presence, resulting in an equally full sound across the full range of the instrument. This xylophone has an easy to operate crank-up height adjustment mechanism with drop cover and mallets also included. About Majestic Majestic is a brand of thoughtfully designed instruments for the professional, the educator, and today’s percussion student utilizing carefully constructed ideas born from both traditional percussion instrument heritage and a culture of innovation. The family firm was founded in 1921, supplying organs, pianos and wind instruments with the production of percussion following shortly after. In 1960 the Majestic brand name was introduced, starting with drum kits which were prevalent among rock bands in the Netherlands. Orchestral and marching percussion soon became the corner stone of the brand, with timpani, marching drum and tuned percussion becoming areas of speciality for Majestic. To this day product development, engineering, and production are overseen by family members and every model must adhere to stringent standards of craftsmanship and performance. Please note: all large tuned percussion instruments such as xylophones, marimbas, and vibes etc. are delivered boxed and require assembly.
