The Tone Deaf Music guiro is a hand painted, 12" guiro complete with scraper. These instruments are commonly used in Latin American music but are also often heard in other popular music. They are played by making both fast and slow strokes with the scraper over the notched part which makes a rasping sound. Like maracas and tambourines they are an excellent choice for vocalists and dancers to play.

Guiro
My friends like to play music and I like to sit around and listen to them play. Well I did. With no musical talent, I decided to look for simple instruments that could be picked up and played without too much disruption to the actual musicians.From simple roots grow great things. For I have had so much fun playing along to my friends and our favourite Reggae tunes that I have recently bought a Djembe Drum followed by a Glockenspiel.The Guiro has a place in my heart now and I love the smiles on everyones' faces when I grab it off the shelf. Even the most musically talented of my friends can't help but want a turn.Great value for money, easy to play, and for me a great bonding and learning experience.

Good guiro for beginner percussionists
Great delivery speed and packaging - the only thing I would say is that the sound quality isn't quite as I expected. Having said that, the guiro itself is well made and a lovely addition to any beginner percussion collection!

Great value
I bought this for my Grandaughter as she likes latin music just so she could play along, i was impressed by the quality of these i had expected something not as good for the price. I have since purchased other items from Tone Deaf Music based on this and have not been disapointed

Fish giro
I like the shape and color. However, it is a bit to short and the sound a bit to soft.

Fun!
Bought this, along with a matching set of maracas, for my little boy. They are the same ones as you get in schools, and they are sold here individually for about the same price. Good quality and good price = recommended by me.
