A clear chick sound, even when quiet
This slim, bar-shaped percussion effect produces a short, crystal clear chick sound when struck - similar to the closed hi-hat of a drum set. Its great advantage is that it speaks clearly even at very low volumes, making it excellent for quiet acoustic sessions.
Mounted by magnet, no tools needed
This version attaches with magnet and Velcro: you can mount it, reposition it or remove it in seconds without any tools. Place it freely on a drum set, cajon, box drum or frame drum - wherever it is most comfortable for you to reach.
Playable by hand, sticks or brushes
You can play it by hand, with sticks, rods, brushes or mallets. It responds sensitively and immediately to every touch, so it suits delicate rhythmic accompaniment as well as assertive accents. It is one of the maker's most versatile add-ons: many players love it precisely because it fits next to almost any instrument.
Material and dimensions
It is made in Germany from multilayer birch with a fabric hose cover. The bar is approx. 21-23 cm long and a few centimetres wide, weighing only about 48 grams - you will hardly notice it on your instrument until it speaks.
