Africa Heartwood Project 40" Chilean Cactus Rainstick Musical Instrument with yarn wr

Natural instrument. Rain sound is loud and realistic.

The sound of the rain stick is nice but it is as though the stones get stuck and you have to shake it a bit for the sound to be consistent. Also the sustain is quite short. It's not as long as I would like it to last for the work I do.

Does what it should, sounds really good. Use it to play with a didgeridoo and crystal bowls. Like the rain sounding effects, and the uninterrupted rocking takes some time getting used to. Always wanted one of these when I heard one.The sealing treatment is more for the wood, and there are some pegs and thorns that back up with use. This is natural, and the way it was made. Get a spoon or a multitool and push them back in. I prefer a more primitive feel in musical instruments, and I enjoy letting it rain wherever I go.Thanks Amazon!

I love my rain stick. I’ve had it for a year and a half now and I use it every day in my classroom. Unfortunately one end popped open and the inside rocks came out. I managed to put them back in and tape the end so it wouldn’t pop off again. Hopefully it will stay! Overall, it has been a great addition in my class and the kids really enjoy the sound it makes.

This product was everything advertised and more. The length of the stick, travel time and sound produced is exactly what I wanted. I'm not sure about some of the reviews or the quality has improved. My rain stick has a subtle, non-gloss covering that still permits some texture which is ideal. I love rotating the rain stick it in my hands and I produce its sounds. This combination with mindful breathing is the meditative break I need at times.If the company's mission is authentic then it's a great win-win for us all.
