The successful development of the Kolberg keyboard glockenspiel is based on decades of experience in the construction of glockenspiels.

Bars

• Every bar is made from a very special alloy in finely balanced dimensions.
• The bars are suspended exactly at their nodal points of vibration with an elastic fixing system, so that the vibration time of the individual notes is greatly enhanced.
• The hardness of the material used for the striking hammers is adapted to every tone from bass to discant.
• Exact dimensions of the individual resonators guarantee maximum sound volume.

Of course you also profit by our decades of experience in tuning high quality mallet instruments. The instrument is perfectly tuned to the partial row of tones (fundamental, octave, third). This is why it blends so very well into the harmony of the other instruments in the orchestra.

A modified Renner (Stuttgart) piano action allows a very sensitive play and articulated repetition. Of course there is an overall pedal damper as well as a damping mechanism for the individual notes, activated by the special technique of playing.

The resonance case is made from European native woods and combines functionality and modern design. Protected sound openings allow for unimpeded sound development. Large and sturdy fully locking swivel casters and end-to-end handles on both sides, serving also as shock-protection, stand the test in practical operation.
