HF850 Flexatone

HF850 Flexatone. Makes a wah-wah/boing sound.

How to play: hold the flexatone in one hand with the palm around the wire frame and the thumb on the free end of the spring steel. Shake the flexatone with a trembling movement which makes the beaters to strike the sides of the metal sheet. While shaking the handle, apply pressure to the blade with the thumb which give a high/low wah-wah effect.

Because of the size, it may be easier when using with children if an adult holds the Flexatone while the child applies the pressure to the blade as their hand will be too small to hold it and play it.
