Fiberglass Guiro with Scraper, Three Sound Zones — NOT MADE IN CHINA — Great for Latin American Music, 2-YEAR WARRANTYOUR MOST SOLID GUIRO: the hard-to-damage, premium fiberglass body can take a lot more abuse than traditional wood; plus, it's unaffected by changes in weather which can affect soundWHY IT MATTERS: this instrument is used a lot in Latin American dance music and festivals where you're playing outside; you won't have to worry about damage, plus, its sound doesn't go dull when humidity changesOF NOTE: there are three zones you can drag the scraper along to make different sounds; the main zone has a traditional sound, the looser packed ridges have a lower, resonant tone, and the super tight ridges have a quieter, high-pitch soundDRIVING THE SOUND: our premium fiberglass is molded with slightly rounded, shallow ridges that produce a deep and warm tone; this guiro's volume picks up where wood guiros leave off, making it easier for your sound to carryZOOM IN: two rubber lined grip holes on back make it easy to hold and maintain resonance while playing; use them with your fingers like a bowling ballBY THE NUMBERS: measures 15 1/4" long x 4 1/2" wide and includes a 7 1/2" long synthetic scraperTHE BOTTOM LINE: it fits with traditional Latin American styles, and you can play it with modern pop music too; its three striking zones open up more sounds, and it's high strength for road and outdoor use
