Pearl 16 in. Bamboo Rainstick in Hand-Painted Rhythm Water Finish

Description

Pearls rainsticks are known for their beauty and sound, for their select tone woods and their artistic designs. This one is a 16 in. bamboo model with a hand-burned design that represents the life cycle of water. The design, called Rhythm Water, was selected for its reverent depiction of the essential nature of mankinds most precious natural element. It has a 2.5 in. diameter, which gives it a complex and enchanting resonance. They work by virtue of a maze of tines that react with a gentle, but crisp rhythmic tone as a cascade of small lava pebbles flow over them. The effect is often described as resembling a gentle steady rainfall.This smaller rainstick is effective as a large stage shaker, as well as for its more common use as a ceremonial or percussion effect. It is surprisingly present in a live environment, and has a sufficiently complex timbre to be effective in the studio.
