Description
- Low pitch with clear attack — sold in pairs, the Meinl Percussion African Hardwood Claves deliver a deep wood tone with low fundamental pitch typically heard in African rhythms and dance music — these claves cut through the mix with a rich wood tone
- Solid hardwood — made with solid hardwood, these claves produce articulate, sharp accents that project strongly so their sound is easily heard on stage and in the audience — the wood is extraordinarily durable and has naturally musical acoustic properties
- Versatile sound — great to use for traditional African and Latin American music, rock, pop, concert band and even orchestral music (live or in the studio) — these claves also work great in larger ensemble settings like classroom band and drum circles
- African style — the body and striker measure 10" long, but the 1 1/4" diameter body is larger than the 7/8" diameter striker to produce a lower pitch — the body also has a smooth notch for more resonance and volume (this notch faces down into your palm)
- Specially weighted for outstanding attack — the large body weighs 6 ounces and the small striker weighs 3 ounces — this noticeable weight difference helps deliver a solid "knock" sound when you strike them together that's crystal-clear and full of depth
- Perfect for studio percussion collections — studio owners will find it handy to have these African style claves as part of a collection of percussion instruments to always have ready when the moment calls for it during recording
- Natural finish — features a natural finish that lets the light wood grain show through
- Manufacturer disclaimer — typographical or grammatical errors found in the bullet point or description text on this product page are a result of this site’s system and are neither the fault of the manufacturer nor marketplace sellers
African Claves are slightly larger and have a lower fundamental pitch. Additionally, the resonating body is larger than the striker. Available in two different versions: Solid and hollowed out body.
