As someone who plays Hand drums I have to say this is very cool! How convenient would it be to just whip this out when you feel in the mood and tap on this awhile? I think it would be terrific! And, the sound is great really. For drummers of any kind who are always tapping their fingers and hands on whatever they can reach when their drums aren't around, this would be very appreciated and fun, believe me. And a whole group with these would be terrific! As well, it would add a crisp embellish to a song.

That's a cute little instrument. It's kind of hard to believe something like this wasn't invented thousands of years ago
