For the most part I'd say yes, the over tones is more noteable in the lower register of a five octave marimba and as far as I know the 3.3 octave marimbas is usually in the mid to top register. You can probably find the over tones if you play around with it but I don't think that they will be clear enough to used in concerts.
It was a 3.5 marimba C3 to F6 but has two broken keys now. But the broken keys are D# and I don't learn songs with this note yet. So with your technique it will work. I can play the D# on a keyboard or piano also.
I really wonder to learn playing with the bow with my left hand in the low keys while playing with a mallet in the middle and high keys. Could you please help me with that ?
@@4marimbas968 Sure! So what I used was a double bass bow that I bought for cheap, with a sticky harts that grips good. You can expereiment a bit with that. Beyond that you can just try and practice. One pointer thou, if the bar wobbles when you pull the bow upwards then try to angle the bow towards the center bar.
Does this technique works in a 3.3 octaves marimba ? Thanks.
