urbanovibe 24 September 2011

Hey guys, i've just found somebody posted a video of a gig i did over a year ago, i wanted to share it with you all. This was a trio we called 'Adult Swing', this was actually the las gig since the guitar player was moving to Chile. Hope you all enjoy. Let me know what you think!

Smoking trio ! great work ! What is your vibes ? Sounds well and it seems it's not a big size instrument ? And what's the name of the tune ? Thanks to post !

Swings. I like it. wonderful bop lines.

Marie, if you look in the upper end, you'll see the nameplate. This appears to a Jog vibratom, a Brazilian maker. They have a lot of instruments.

Real-Euro exchange rate may make this a viable option, if you can get one imported.

thanks so much to you all, i really appreciate the kind words! indeed the vibes is a JOG... I don't know if they are still that much cheaper than a musser. The way i see it now after having it for almost 5 years, is that they are not a sort of replacement to a musser, but a thing of its own (they've been doing vibes for over 50 years). measures are the same as musser. It's amplified with radioshack pickups (haha) and at that gig i was using the house's SWR Redhead, i really liked it. Mallets are a custom model made by argentine timpani and mallet maker MC (www.mcpercusion.com.ar)

BTW there's a handful of pretty decent vibes makers in argentina and brazil, a whole new world, specially budget-wise
