Flexatone with expressive playing effect
The Latin Percussion LP1-5 Standard Flex-a-Tone is a flexatone that creates its characteristic bending effect by moving the spring steel with your thumb while the wooden ball strikes the surface. That combination of bending and impact makes this percussion instrument well suited to striking gliding accents and theatrical effects within a piece of music.
According to the product description, with a little practice you can even play complete melodic phrases on the Flex-a-Tone. That makes the Latin Percussion LP1-5 appealing to percussionists who want more from an effect instrument than a single accent.
Latin Percussion LP1-5 in Grey Metallic
This Standard Flex-a-Tone comes in Grey Metallic. The familiar Latin Percussion version suits players looking for a compact percussion instrument with a clear playing action: thumb pressure on the spring steel and a wooden ball striking the surface.
If you are looking for a flexatone for percussion setups, percussion parts or special sound effects, the LP1-5 is a direct and recognisable choice. At Magna Music, you can also count on practical advice from people who work with and play instruments themselves.
