TreeWorks TRE35 Large Classic Chime

The TreeWorks TRE35 Large Classic Chime: Shimmer, Sustain and Musical Texture

Full Size 35 Bar Classic Chime

The TreeWorks TRE35 is a full size, single row classic chime built around 35 individually suspended bars. Its voice has the shimmering character, long sustain and broad dynamic response that make a quality set of chimes such a useful addition to a percussion setup. From a gentle sweep to a more pronounced accent, the TRE35 can add color and movement without getting in the way of the music.

Aluminum and Titanium Alloy Chime Bars

The heart of the TRE35 is its set of custom milled aluminum and titanium alloy bars. The bars are heat tempered, precision drilled and polished before being individually tuned by ear. The result is a clear, distinctive response with plenty of shimmer and sustain. Its unique chromatic like tuning is designed to blend naturally across a wide range of musical settings.

Tennessee Walnut Mantle

Supporting those bars is a solid Tennessee walnut mantle made from kiln dried stock. The walnut is carefully prepared and finished with a hand rubbed oil finish, giving the TRE35 a handsome, understated appearance that fits right at home among professional percussion gear. This is the sort of instrument where the craftsmanship is apparent before you ever hear the first sweep.

Hand Tied CordLoc Construction

Each individual bar is hand tied to the mantle using TreeWorks CordLoc cording. The braided cording uses strong fibers with individually hand knotted, locked and sealed connections. The cords are made long enough to keep the bars from striking the walnut mantle, while the knots are tucked into the bar holes to stay out of the way of their vibration.

Handbuilt Classic Chimes

The TRE35 is handbuilt in Nashville, Tennessee, bringing together carefully selected hardwood, individually prepared alloy bars and detailed hand assembly. The combination gives percussionists a classic chime with the sustain and dynamic range to move from subtle atmospheric textures to sweeping musical accents.
