ABSTRACT:
A plurality of metal bars of a vibraphone are regulated such that the first-order to third-order vibration approximate to the frequency ratio of 1:4:8 by using recesses formed in the central portion of the metal bar and the end portions on both sides of the central portion, and a player can make the metal bars generate tones exactly on a scale so as to harmonize with one another.
