Hi,
My name is rio. I belong to an orgaization that is starting a drum corp and I have been pulling my hair out trying to figur out what to with for mallet percussion. I then decided the easiest route would be to go with one name and since we are purchasing pearl drums, adams was the logical choice. As I have been doing research I wanted to purchase the Adams 4.3 zelon synthetic. Pretty sure we should get one of those and we are looking into 1 or 2 more marimbas. I would love to purchase a rosewood marimba but I feel it maybe too much maintenance. I have read many threads on this site but I really havent been able to get a clear picture on what to do. Does any one have any advice our 2nd and possibly third marimba. This would probably revert back to the discussion of Musser Kelon vs Yamaha Acoustalon vs Paduk. Customer service for adams would not be an issue because we are purchasing our equipment through a pearl dealer and repairer but customer service for eveyone else would be a factor. We are also looking into whether or not we would need to purchase a 5.0 octave or a 4.0 octave for contrast. Thank you for reading this and hope to her some replys.
