DescriptionThe Musser E3279 Vibraphone Damper Bar Felt is a dedicated replacement strip that helps restore smooth, reliable damping on many Musser vibraphones. It fits key models such as the One Nighter, Pro, Pro Traveler, and Century, so it suits both educational and professional setups. When the sustain pedal rises, this felt gives the bars a clean, controlled stop. As a result, your instrument feels more responsive and sounds more focused across the full range.Materials and Build QualityThis damper felt is cut to precise dimensions of 51″ long, 1.5″ wide, and 0.5″ deep. The thickness provides enough cushioning for secure bar contact while still allowing quick pedal action. The material compresses evenly along the full length of the bar rail, which reduces unwanted noise and uneven damping. In everyday use, this means fewer buzzes and cleaner releases. However, it is important to note that this strip is not compatible with the Musser M58 or M44, so those instruments require a different part.Performance and Use CaseThe Musser E3279 Vibraphone Damper Bar Felt makes a noticeable difference to pedal feel and articulation. As you release the pedal, the felt meets the bars smoothly and helps them stop together, which improves clarity in fast passages and delicate lines. Moreover, it supports consistent damping from the low to the high end, so phrasing stays even across the keyboard. This is especially useful in concert halls, recording studios, and teaching rooms where detail matters. Instead of fighting a worn or flattened old strip, you can fit this new felt and bring the instrument back to a more refined response.Key FeaturesGenuine Musser replacement damper bar feltFits most Musser vibraphones: One Nighter, Pro, Pro Traveler, CenturyDimensions: 51″ L × 1.5″ W × 0.5″ DSupports clean, even damping when the sustain pedal is releasedImproves articulation and reduces unwanted mechanical noiseNot compatible with M58 or M44 modelsMore InformationFor more vibraphone accessories and replacement parts, explore our keyboard frame parts selection.
