Add a distinctive rattling effect to your percussion setup with the Percussion Plus Vibraslap. Also known as a jawbone or chatterbox, this classic percussion instrument produces its recognisable chattering sound with a simple strike, making it a popular choice for orchestras, percussion ensembles, school music departments and live performances.
It has also become well known for its use as a comic sound effect in film and television, as well as iconic recordings such as Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne and Sweet Emotion by Aerosmith.
Easy to play and built for regular use, the Percussion Plus Vibraslap is suitable for players of all abilities. Its robust construction and distinctive sound make it a versatile addition to any classroom percussion collection or performance setup.
The vibraslap creates its characteristic sound when the ball end is struck with the palm of the hand. The vibration travels through the metal frame into the wooden resonator, causing the internal metal tines to rattle and produce the familiar chattering effect.
With no specialist technique required, the vibraslap is accessible to beginners while remaining a staple in the percussion section of many ensembles. Its unique sound can be used to add colour and texture to a wide variety of musical styles and theatrical performances.
