How our reviews work

  • A few days after your order ships we'll email you a link to leave a review. When your feedback is published it will carry a Customer verified badge, so others know it came from a real order with us.
  • We only ever edit a review to remove profanity, spam, or personal details - otherwise it's published exactly as written, good or bad. We won’t ever remove or edit critical ones.
  • You don't need to have bought a product from us to review it - if you know the product, we want you to let other shoppers know what you honestly think, using the form on the product page. These are moderated in the same way, but won't carry our Customer verified badge.

Introducing the Percussion Plus Classic Red Box bass chromatic metallophone

The Percussion Plus metallophones are constructed in a similar way to their glockenspiels. They are part of the ever popular Percussion Plus Classic Red Box range, so called because of the instruments' superb tuning accuracy.

Mounted on a wooden frame produced from selected, solid wood the sound reverberates and carries exceptionally well. Like all the other models in the Percussion Plus Classic Red Box line-up, this instrument has precision cut tone bars for exceptionally accurate tuning and the quality of sound is superb.

This model includes 6 notes - C#(Db)29, D#(Eb)31, G#(Ab)36, C#(Db)41, D#(Eb)43, and G#(Ab)48 - and allows room for the F#(Gb) and A#(Bb) note bars that are included with the diatonic half.

The PP022 diatonic metallophone is not included. Combine with the PP021 for a fully chromatic scale.

More about our Percussion Plus Red Box range

The Percussion Plus Red Box range instruments have all been completed to the highest standard. Extra care has been taken to ensure that the instruments have followed precise tuning control to A440 (pitch standard). They are also easy to recognise with the signature sprayed red finish to identify them as a genuine Percussion Plus product.

Thanks to their reliability and high quality, they have always been a very popular choice with players and particularly schools, for over 25 years. Their excellent tuning stability and their robustness mean they last very well in what can sometimes be a challenging environment within a school.
