I have just acquired a very old set of vibes and they are made by Jenco, the range is C4 to F6. The motor still works but I will need to get some new cables. I also plan on installing a new power cable because the one that is currently installed looks old and I wouldn't want it to blow a fuse. Besides these small flaws, it just needs to be polished up a bit and I believe it will be in quite good condition, and sounding quite good as well. I also believe that the current parts are original.

Playing playing playing.....

Today I did a smart thing (if I say so myself). For the 1th time I used the Metronome that gives a different kind of tick on beat 1, so now I know if I'm still correct in the measure, and not only tempo.

That woke me up. I must pay attention in not leaving gaps. Keep on counting. This was a major step in doing this, it really helped I think. I still need to work on it, especially more to the end, when I'm supposed to be improvising more and more. 2 times bridge suck. work on it Stefan !

Just a heads up. We are working hard behind the scenes. We are working on getting the videos to show on iphones, finally! The cool thing is we're working on a new layout that display on any device. From a small phone to a desktop computer.

That's really exciting because that means you watch lessons and study on your phone.

I'll keep you posted. We have a developers version of the site up and when it gets a little closer, I'll send you guys the link.

Great condition instrument, only a few superficial scratches to bars. $6500, OBO. Email for questions, pictures, or recordings.

Perfect, soundless frame. Fabulous touch screen motor system. Huge sound, with full bass extension.

In this post I try to practise my tempo using a lot of spase between the lines. I also played a second line and comping. It's ineresting how many things you can practise from one exercise!

Thanks David/really helpfull stuff!

I am still working on How deep-still a lot to learn...One of the millions things I took from the site is to work music from people all around the world. So this is my friend Giorgos who studies at Maastrichtt(Netherlands) and he recorded a walk for me.

I just thought good idea to post this here

Enjoy!

Hi All,
Running a little late this month, been very busy, in a good way.
Here's the info on April's show:

Vibist new to Good Vibes this month is Harold Masteller, owner of The Jazz Corner on Hilton Head Island. Masteller plays the flugelbone and, inherited from his dad Harold (who played jazz violin in the '30s) the vibes as well. On Tuesday nights Bob plays with the band; the club itself is open SEVEN nights a week -- with jazz. The restaurant is fabulous, everything the kitchen sends out is delicious.
