The marimba arrived last Thursday.  I was a bit concerned at first because
one of the boxes was pretty beat up, but once I opened it, was amazed at how
well you packed the instrument.  I set it up over the weekend.  Your
instructions are great, and the stamping made the set up go very smoothly.
We are extremely happy with it.  You did a fantastic job, and it exceeded
our expectations.  You obviously take great pride in your business and
craftsmanship, and it shows!!  I would recommend you to anyone.

Thank you!
Jon

Hi Matt,

I got the xylo today, and everything arrived safe and sound.  I am very very pleased with the way the instrument sounds. The bars feel dense and it has a very bright sound quality.
The lowest note on the instrument might be a little funky but I’ll have to play some more to get a feel for it.  I’ll have a few small suggestions which I always know you are open to recieving as well.  Nothing major; just tiny little cosmetic things you might want to consider here or there from the player’s standpoint.
Overall, it’s beautiful and can’t wait to start shedding some notes on it!
Thanks again,
David

Matt,
I wanted to let you know that we received the marimba last week.  I’ve been able to set it up and play on it briefly a few times now.  I am very impressed.  I’m really surprised that you were able to get us such a high quality, beautiful, great sounding instrument at this price!  I especially like that low-end sounds much bigger than many low-A instruments I’ve played.  Further, I was really not expecting the frame to look this nice, and I love how quiet and durable it seems.  I’m certain this instrument will last at HCC for many, many years.

Thank you for working with us and our limited means, and thank you for making us such a beautiful instrument!
