    "​This rare Maas-Rowe Vibrachord electronic carillon has a sweet, pure timbre like a vibraphone but with a sound all its own. It has five voices: celesta, harp, muted harp, vibrachord, orchestra bells. The Maas-Rowe Vibrachord consists of a bell/solenoid unit, an amplifier, control panel unit, keyboard, and a speaker cabinet. This particular Vibrachord uses an aftermarket Hammond tone cabinet for its speaker and both plays and sounds great. These are difficult to find in working condition. "
