This page lists instruments currently for sale. These items may be new or second hand, or refurbished as needed.
All second hand instruments are guaranteed to be in as good if not better playing condition than when new. In replacing
for example rubber parts on xylophones and metallophones, I often use better quality materials than used in manufacture.
Please contact me if you are after something in particular. As Musaics primary focus is the manufacture, repair,
and sale of tuned percussion I can guarantee that all tuned percussion instruments for sale are also instruments I can
service, and supply parts for. Any class room xylophone or metallophone for example can be purchased with complete
confidence with regard to its on going use, no matter how harsh the class room environment. I can supply both genuine or
my own manufactured (after market?) parts.
All prices are inclusive of GST. I am able to organise freight, if required, the cost of which will depend on destination.
For schools wishing to order, I am able to provide ABN and invoice the school.
Regarding warranties on items listed here, this will vary. All new instruments when indicated as new, are couvered
by the manufacturers warranty. Any tuned percussion items I have listed as second hand refurbished I
guarantee for 3 months, and possibly longer, at my discretion, and depending on the situation. All tuned
percussion manufactured by myself I am happy to guarantee for the life of that instrument. This means anything excluding
normal wear and tear of normal or extreme usage, and can be taken to include for example changes in tuning of xylophone bars, which
I will retune free of charge for their life. It does not include for example perishing of rubber components, which is part
of an instruments wear and maintenance.
Regarding guitars, violins and amplification. I am not able to provide a manufacturers warranty unless the item is
listed as being "new". I do however undertake to guarantee items for 3 months in terms of anything that was
obvioulsly defective at the time of sale. This will require the item being returned to me, at the cost of the purchaser,
at which time I will repair, replace or refund as required.
The instruments listed below include tuned percussion ,
violins violas and cello ,
guitars,
and amplification.
I can supply a range of mallets designed for use with most classroom instruments. Mallets come in various sizes and hardness,
to suite various instruments. The general rule is, the higher up the range of the instrument,
the harder the mallet needs to be to enable the instrument to speak. So, for example, you would want a softer and larger
head on a mallet for a bass xylophone, and a smaller and harder head on a soprano xylophone. Using a hard mallet on a bass
xylophone tends to bring out the higher harmonics, or, if you like, gives the sound a harder edge, and does not allow
the fundamental note of the bar to sound. This might be required in specific situations, but mostly it just sounds unpleasant.
A soft mallet used on a soprano xylophone or a glock just does not give much sound, and often results in the bar being
bounced off the instrument. Having said this, there are times when this rule may not apply, i.e. using a soft felt mallet
on a soprano metallophone can sound very nice, if a little soft.
Mallets that I manufacture are made with grey PVC handles, that can stand a reasonable amount of punishment
(certainly better than wooden handles). I also provide a range of mallets sourced from elsewhere.
Saito model 1500 Vibraphone. As new instrument. 37 hard aluminium alloy gold anodised bars, range F33 to F69. Infinitely variable very quiet motor with linear fader.

It has been played by a professional player who was unable to distinguish between these bars and the originals (borrowed for the purpose of comparison). Price: $7000. The recommended retail of this instrument is $12,576, making this close to half price. Come check it out!

Cort MR 700F NS semi Acoustic Guitar. This is the same model as the instrument mentioned above, but in natural finish.
This guitar has a slight mark on the top, aproximately where the fore-arm rests. This is a small indentation. It has
no affect on the perfromance of the guitar, and is purely cosmetic. It also has a small break in the side near the cutout.
This has been repaired, and though it is clearly visible, has no effect on the performance. In my estimation,
this instrument is a standout amongst other

Oakridge Resonator Semi Acoustic Guitar. Model DB-2CE, mahogany back, top, back ,and sides. Rosewood fingerboard, pickup,
volume and tone controlls, diecast machine heads, chrome plated hardware, tobaco sunburst finish.
This instrument is unused, but has been repaired. The wooden ring holding the resonator cone in place was not secured
properly when manufactured, and had come loose. When repairing I have added extra screws securing this wooden rim, and
so this instrument is in better shape structurally than an off the shelf new one. It does however have some signs
of this repair, with some of the extra screws visible from under the side of the cover plate. The instrument also has
2 small marks on the top, which are very superficial. I feel the extra rigidity in regluing and screwing this in place
has tended to improve the sound of the resonator cone a little, as it tends to have a slightly better response when
compared to a similar one that is new off the shelf.
This guitar normally retails for $700.
Price: $350.

Old Three Quarter Violin. This is an old three quarter size violin. The measurements are: body length is 340 mm,
string length is 310 mm, overall length is 560 mm. It probably needs the end pin repositioned slightly ,
as the tailpiece is not centred on the end of the body. It probably also needs new pegs, could do with new strings, and
probably a new bridge if one really wanted to bring it up to speed. Otherwise this violin
is in very good condition. It has some superficial marks on top, but no splits of any kind. It also comes in an old
wooden case as shown, which is also in reasonably good condition. The original bow is also included,
though this would not be usable in its current state.
Price: $150.

Old Violin Case. This is an older wooden violin case, with a nice original carry handle. Some of the
veneer on the back of the case is missing, as shown. The front, where the clips close the case,
is in much better condition. The inside is in reasonable condition, but could do with new velvet lining
as used in newer cases. The case is big enough to allow for the fitting of some lining and still house a
violin. Would suit someone wanting an old style case, or as a decoration.

Universal Tiger Power Amplifier. This is an old design power amplifier. It was built in the early
70'ies from an American Popular Electronics project published in 1970. It will deliver 80 watts RMS per channel
into 8 ohms, and 120 watts per channel into 4 ohms. This amp was built by a very competent technician friend of mine.
It has not been used for at least 35 years.
I recently had it looked at, as it was not working. The only problem was a defective fuse holder.
The servicing technician was very impressed with the construction quality, and was surprised that such a unit should
ever stop working. It now works fine.
Please be aware that this is an old design, and won't have the same audio specs as a modern day power amp.
I have also found that it takes a fairly high input signal to give a high power output, so you will need to turn
up your mixer fairly high. It also comes in a chipboard box I made up many years ago. Not pretty but effective.
This would suite someone looking for this sort of sound, or someone wanting a cheap power amp to set up a home PA.
Price: $200, or make me an offer.
