Vibraphone

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to this site, although I've been playing vibes and marimba for more than 50 years. That said, I have a question about maintaining the bars on my beloved Deagan vibes, which I bought last year. While doing a yearly cleanup and routine maintenance -- a few drops of oil in the designated spots on the motor -- and a light scrub with a mild detergent on the bars, I noticed several tarnish spots on the bars. Any suggestions for removing them? I'm reluctant to use anything that might damage the bars or alter their tone.

Hi people!! this link regards another video around TIME it's a beautiful song from my friend, a great Italian guitarist: Enrico Bracco and is very challenging..

Here's a second basic lesson on playing the TOTM, Alone Together, in 7.

Ok guys, here's your assignment(s).

Despite a big error in the middle of the chorus i decided to let it go and post it though.
I won't make that mistake twice ! Video is good to check out our weaknesses.

Quick note for PASIC 2014.

I'll be at the Malletech booth and look forward to meeting you all!

Friday before the Manieri concert I'm having a meet up at the Malletech booth at 5:30 pm. Then we can all go out and get something to eat together before the Manieri concert.

Just a quick note, January 4th and 5th we are having the first official Vibe Congress.

This will take place at the Malletech factory in Asbury Park and will be free. It's at the Malletech factory because Malletech has agreed to host the workshop for free.

No Sales Pitches! We're not having this at Malletech so they can sell you an instrument. We chose Malletech because it's FREE and central on the east coast. Hotels will be very cheap.

We will have Musser and Yamaha Vibes there as well!

I need to secure a vibraphone for an upcoming tour slated for February 13th thru the 25th. Please contact me at tmacaoidh@gmail.com for more information reguarding the tour.
