I'm surpised the guys at MARIMBA ONE said to stain it. If you do that without a clear finish the stain will probably come off on your mallets. Who did you talk to? I know Ron Samuels and John Salazar, his tuner, very well and I'm surprised they suggested that. Don't paint the bars!!!! You will ruin theninstrument. If you really want to do this,the bars need to be stripped and re-finished with any of a number of finishes, such as a tinted pre-catalyzed lacquer, eurathane, etc... I do a lot of refinishing of xylos, marimbas, bells and occasionally vibes..and could strip and refinish it for you in a different tint, but I would not be interested in doing a color such as blue.
