Most of us voice from the bottom up, right? C maj 7, we hit the C and build up from there.
Try voicing from the top down. See the B or the D and then fill in the rest of the chord. It's not easy to switch, but it will REALLY help your playing..
1) Musser One Niter Vibe - $1100.
The old model, uniform bars. Bars, resonators, pedal and frame show heavy use, but are okay, and sound good. New legs and cross-bar. Should be re-strung, new strings included. Motor is included, but has been removed. Motor works, but needs new AC wire.
2) Musser 2 1/2 octave Rosewood marimba - $400.
In decent shape, should be re-strung.
3) Musser Orchestra Bells - $200.
Beat up, but all parts are present.
Very nice to watch. Move over Stockhausen.

I happened upon this You Tube clip commemorating Victor Feldman's posthumous induction into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tennessee. A fitting tribute to a musical genius and icon who was removed from us too young.
Mainieri's playing gave me the goose bumps and made me want to cry out in joy!
Elias, Erskine and Gomez sound great here too. Why wasn't I listening to this in 1983 instead of the Fat Boyz and Run-DMC? (LOL)!
Hey David!
Someone started a NY Session Musicians group on Facebook, and this photo was posted. Thought I'd share it here. (Hugh McCracken is in like every photo!)
