Vibraphone:
The vibraphone (also known as the vibraharp or simply the vibes)
is a musical instrument in the struck idiophone subfamily of
the percussion family.
The vibraphone resembles the xylophone, marimba,
and glockenspiel. Each bar is paired with a resonator tube that
has a motor-driven butterfly valve at its upper end.
The valves are mounted on a common shaft, which produces a
tremolo or vibrato effect while spinning.
The vibraphone also has a sustain pedal similar to that on a piano.
With the pedal up, the bars are all damped and produce a
shortened sound. With the pedal down,
they sound for several seconds.
The vibraphone is commonly used in jazz music,
in which it often plays a featured role and was a defining element
of the sound of mid-20th-century "Tiki lounge" exotica,
as popularized by Arthur Lyman.
It is the second most popular solo keyboard percussion instrument
in classical music, after the marimba, and is part of the standard
college-level percussion performance education.
It is a standard instrument in the modern percussion section
for orchestras and concert bands.
Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.
Bass Guitar
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played
primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking,
slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping,
or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction
to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length,
and four to six strings or courses.
The four-string bass, by far the most common,
is usually tuned the same as the double bass,
which corresponds to pitches one octave lower
than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G).
The bass guitar is a transposing instrument,
as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it
sounds to avoid excessive ledger lines.
Like the electric guitar, the bass guitar is plugged
into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.
In the 1930s, musician and inventor Paul Tutmarc from
Seattle, Washington, who was manufacturing lap steel guitars,
developed the first electric string bass in its modern form,
a fretted instrument designed to be played horizontally.
