Raise the Bar with Acoustalon Technology
Designed with innovative Acoustalon bars, the YX-500F is a top-notch intermediate xylophone with unmatched durability. Acoustalon is a Yamaha-trademarked synthetic material that is resilient to extreme temperatures and weather changes. Still, musicians at Sweetwater find that the YX-500F has incredible resonating power that bears tonal similarities to traditional Padauk or Rosewood bars. Players of all levels are sure to appreciate the YX-500F’s responsive 1-5/8-inch non-graduated bars. Its 3.5-octave range runs from F45 to C88 and sounds magnificent as it rings through its brushed tan cutaway resonators. The YX-500F also features 4-inch casters with two locking wheels and a height-adjustable frame, so players can find a comfortable setup with little effort.
