Padouk Wood

Players find mallet choices and playing technique like roll speed and dynamic control is nearly indentical to that of rosewood with a lower cost, making it an ideal bar choice for a personal practice instrument or an ensemble.

Play a wide bar instrument

Adams Concert series marimbas are available with an exclusive Honduras Rosewood, durable Zelon or a cost-effective African Padouk keyboard. The great advantage of the marimbas from this series is that the bars are just as wide as those of a top-class professional instrument. This will help you get used to a mallet spread that will come in handy later on.

Hear every detail in perfect harmony

Whether you choose Rosewood, Padouk, or Zelon, each bar is painstakingly hand-adjusted through the sixth overtone using a proprietary computer assisted method at the hands of a highly skilled Adams craftsman. This precise tuning and voicing process ensures the instrument’s sound is balanced perfectly throughout the entire range.
