Funky and huge, this xylophone not only fills your space with deep tonal sounds, it also functions as an art piece. Each soaring amadinda can be hung like a hammock on a custom frame created by hardwood branches, or more simply on four log posts. The keys are created from Ipe, a second growth farmed Brazilian hardwood. Your order will include a string of tuned keys and mounting hardware. Our 4 post log frame is available for mounting this product, and includes an installation manual.
Please note that this instrument is not intended or designed for climbing. All musical instruments should be installed away from gross motor components.
