The Grand Soloist Series has been producing big, fat marimba tones since 1990 under a different model name. They all have a rubber core plus an additional layer of latex — in other words, all rubber, all the way through. They are wound medium-tight with an extremely durable proprietary synthetic yarn that produces clear articulation even at pianissimo. They are wound at a steep angle, producing a nearly round shape. Now available in four hardnesses, as well as in graduated sets.
自 1990 年以來，Grand Soloist 系列一直以不同的型號名稱為馬林巴琴帶來宏亮的音色。 它們的核心都是橡膠，外加一層乳膠--換句話說，通體都是橡膠。 它們採用極其耐用的專有合成紗線，纏繞適度緊密，即使在鋼琴聲中也能產生清晰的發音。 它們以陡峭的角度纏繞，形成近似圓形的形狀。 現在有四種硬度和刻度套裝可供選擇。
