MEINL Orchestra Ratchet

Mountable orchestra ratchet with easy-grip crank handle.

The Meinl percussion orchestra ratchet can produce quick notes like a cabasa or long-sustaining sounds with a woody rattle effect that projects clearly. Commonly found in orchestral settings, this instrument is great for producing controlled accents that last for virtually any note rate. The metal hand crank is easy to grip as it spins the wooden paddles inside. You can use the mount to secure the orchestra ratchet to a stand or simply hold in your hand while you play.
