Joe Birl Solid Maple Musical Rhythm Bones

The bones have a unique scooping at the top that lets your fingers confidently control the bones. It has a nice solid tone and a snappy action. Worth the money!

Learning curve involved, but fun to play.

I am new to this instrument, and I appreciate the finger cut outs. They make it easy to grip—and continue gripping these bones.Not having tried any other bones, I can’t compare the sound produced, but it is variable depending on which fingers you use to hold them.Fun & portable!

These were my first set of bones. They're heavy and well crafted. The finger cutouts do help - I ended up buying two sets to work on my left hand with the right - and the cutouts were helpful for my ungainly left hand. The colors are a bit different on the set and the sets which doesn't matter to the sound which is very loud. Instead of click-click, these clack-clack if that makes any sense to anyone. I wanted to damp them a bit and taped the inner sides to muffle the noise but once you get a bit more skilled you can control that with your hands. Great work on these.

If you play rhythm bones, then you need a set of Joe Birl Bones. The man is a legend, with his patented design and official name of "Rhythm Bones". They play smooth and easy, and are not only for beginners. They produce several different tones, depending on the grip.

Very Cool Instrument. I Have Afew Of These. The Wood On This One Is Very Quiet. I Play My Harmonicas To These & Needed Them To Be Much Louder. " Very Fun Instrument To Play / Master. "

I'm thinking about getting another pair of these, after you get the hang of it. you won't put them down. Highly Recommended!

Wish i knew it had the finger grooves in it, helps at first but negatively affects ability to progress and hold tightly
