The Omega from Malletech! What a beautiful instrument. The cool thing is Leigh really listened to the pros and made an instrument the pros students and colleges would REALLY want to have and play. I think this is the beginning of something great!
The great thing is, it's portable and sturdy.

Hey guys, I'm going to talk more about this in the coming days. But the new official instrument of Vibes Workshop is the Omega vibes from Malletech. I'm truly in love with this instrument. I've been meeting and talking with Leigh Stevens for the past 2 years. We met yesterday and this time it's now official!
So the University of the Arts (where Tony teaches in Illadelph) is illin' hard this year and we are going to start a monthly to bi monthly study. So we will blog on the blogoshphere of the interwebs via vibesworkshop.com about a certain composer or style, recommend tunes/info/recordings to each other, each learn some tunes from that composer or in that style, and eventually meet up and have a vibe hang that is centered around the topic du jour of the month.
The first up on the list is Duke Ellington/ Billy Strayhorn.
