ABSTRACT:
A musical instrument has a plurality of chime members disposed along its length, and each chime member is easily removed from the instrument or placed in a different position with respect to the other chime members. In some embodiments, plural slots are formed along the length of a base member and each chime member is suspended from a cord that is inserted into contiguous slots, and an elongate cover member overlies the base member to prevent inadvertent removal of the cords from their respective slots. Different structures are shown for spacing the cover apart from the base when it is desired to remove one or more cords from its associated slot. In additional embodiments, each chime member is suspended from a module, and the module releasably engages the base member.
