LP Traditional Clave, Pair Overview
LP Traditional Clave (Pair) - LP262R
Clave is the rhythmic pattern that forms the basis of Latin music. Claves are the traditional instruments used to play clave and are comprised of two sticks that are struck together to get a sharp, cracking sound. One is called the Clave or male, while the other is the Striker or female. The Clave lays in one hand between the fingertips and the heel of the hand, with the thumb out for support. This space between the Clave and the palm of the hand creates a sound chamber. The Striker is held as a beater in the other hand and is struck against the Clave.
- Kiln dried Maple wood or exotic hardwood
- Clave and Striker are the same size (10" L x 1" W)
