This is truly a one of a kind Deagan 145B vibraphone in all original, near mint condition. The sound production of the Deagan 145 model vibraphones is legendary. They produce the quintessential vibraphone sound of the jazz era. This instrument adds a stunning visual effect to that great sound. The resonators and legs are brass plated and the rails are covered with a beautiful diamon black pearl peralin. The brass end pieces for the reail sections are etched brass which adds extra flair to this stunning instrument. The combination of the brass frame, black diamond pearl, and etched brass makes this a very unique, one of a kind instrument. This is a two owner instrument that has been well cared for. All plating and BDP covering is in excellent, original condition. The original motor works perfectly and the original felt damper bar also works perfectly. We have never seen a better example of the Deagan 145B model vibraphone. This is a must have instrument for any true admirer of vintage Deagan keyboard instruments.
