Good sound, could be more robust.

Nipsu 03.04.2018

I use this for a snap-like sound on the backbeat in live situations. Sounds very good! You can mount it, or then take the mount off and place it on top of your snare like I do.

There is one thing that?s not good. The castanetd have a small ?lip? between the castanet itself and the base, that keeps it in it?s place and stops unwantes rattling. The lip is very thin and breaks easily. My first castanet machine came with already broken lip staight out of the box. I returned it and got a new one that wasn?t broken. But since I?ve been using it and it has been in my gigbag with all the other percussions, the lip has broken again. I can still play it, but if I play it so that I take my hand off right away (like accidentaly touching a hot stove) it rattles a bit which I don?t like. So I have to rest my hand on top of the instrument every time I hit it. It?s not a dealbreaker, but something LP definetely should fix.

All in all, it?s a very useful effect, I will use it in the future too and would recommend it. If they fixed the lip and would be 5/5.

Simply perfect for our drummer

Shahab Tolouie 30.08.2019

These castanets are a perfect addition to our drummer's set. since we play a fusion of Persian & Flamenco styles, the castanets stress the right sound when needed. When mounted they're very firm, thus the drummer plays them with sticks. Don't know how much road abuse the rubber band can take. That time will show. but they're so convenient and practical that we sure will buy another one immediately when these worn out.
Thanx tons to Thomann for their amazing service. Cheers
