Maintenance

I'm doing a recording session and have misplaced the power supply for the vibrato motor on the Malletech Omega Vibe. I can't recall what voltage it is. If it's something common like 12V then I may be in luck but I definitely don't want to fry it with too much voltage. Thanks!

I'm looking for rubber "licorice" post isolators for a Musser ProVibe. On the Steve Weiss website I found "Musser Marimba Post Isolators", with a list of instruments that these isolators fit. The M55 ProVibe is not listed, but I suspect that they will fit.

Does anyone know a source for these rubber post isolators for the Musser vibe?

I thought it may be helpful to share my experience with anodizing/re-anodizing Muster vibe bars.  This is a small sample based on unscientific experience of two sets of bars, and a total of three trips to two different anodizers.  I’d sure think long and hard about taking this on myself again.  Take my advice comments at your own risk!  Also not all bars are anodized! Some are painted and/or have a clear coat on them.

HI Everyone, its my first post, and I am hoping that some knowledgeable folks may be able to help with some troubleshooting on my (mostly unused!) Yamaha 3710. 

If you have the screw/compression casters and your wheels are wobbly on your M55/M48 (it may work on others), it may be that the rubber inside that is worn out or soft. I got replacement 7/8" compression rubber and the spacers on Ebay and it made a big difference. Just be careful not to overtighten or you can crack the legs. Also, when you take out the old ones make sure you only loosen them enough to pull them out; don't screw them out all the way or the rubber and nut will be stuck up in the leg.

Hola amigxs! Quería saber si conocen algún local que venda reemplazos para un pedazo del brazo de mi pedal que se rompió de mi Musser M55 acá en argentina. Si no esta en arg. todo bien, capaz otro lugar latino tiene mejores importaciones.

HI Guys,
Recently got hold of a beautiful M55G and have a few gigs coming up, outside on grass. As the musser has a wooden frame at the top are there any issues with it getting hot (in the sun) or damp from the grass affecting it?

My old premier 751 was all metal so no issues there!

Thanks

Hi everyone!

I'm wondering if anyone has found any general at home solutions to helping squeaky pedals? I have a Musser M55 and am noticing a lot of pedal squeaks especially if my pedal is tilted to the side in any way. I am just looking to see if anyone has any advice on how to troubleshoot or help quiet this even a little bit.

I appreciate any ideas you may have!!

I hate to even have to write this post but I’m hoping that there maybe other vibe players who could give me some insight on this.

This week I've been playing a Piper Musser at one of the local community colleges, and a couple days ago the pedal fell complete off... with no apparent way to get it reattached. From what I know at this point, the bolt was cemented in, and we can't get the whole bolt out. What to do? I can upload photos of the problem area if anyone (maybe John Piper?) could advise us.
