Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Eggz are so inexpensive and sturdy that they make great giveaways for children. That's how I discovered them - someone gave them to my kids as gifts. I brought one to church to play with the praise band one Sunday just for fun and I was hooked. The tone of these shakers really is better than others - not too bright, not too dark, and not too "gravelly". The plastic shell is just the right thickness. You can adjust the tone by holding with two fingers (bright), your whole hand (dark), or something in between. The sharpness of the attack can be shaped with not only your technique, but point which way you point the instrument. My preferred method is to hold one pointing up in my hand and one pointing forward with my thumb and forefinger, but I have used them other ways, including as mallets on congas and drum kit for an interesting effect. Calling Eggz "toys", "party favors", "fun" and "stocking stuffers" does a grave injustice to an instrument that I find indispensable at church and pro gigs.
I agree with another reviewer that they are too quiet. That was the reason I developed my "two egg" technique. Without a microphone, they can get lost in a percussion ensemble. At this price, two for each hand would help, but it would be nice if they had a knob that turned up to "eleven".
