Studio 49 SX1000

This is a marvelous instrument.
It is perfectly made. Its compact shape makes it very practical to store in the classroom. But you don't want to store it because it is beautiful. The tones are extremely melodious for a xylophone, with very little "wood" overtones.
The only difficulty it creates in the classroom is that everyone wants to play it, which is a credit for the instrument, as children are very sensitive to beauty.
It's well worth saving money to be able to add this item to your instrumentarium. I have two and hope to get more of them in due course.
