Tone/Slit Drum
Posted: 9th January 2012
This is a great little drum to introduce tone/slit drums to students. The children are able to hear the difference in tone according to the "tongue" played and distinguish the subtle high/low pitches. The "on sale" price and free shipping made this an unbeatable value!
