The Graphix Globe Shaker has a circular shape and fits nicely in the hand. The shaker can be played with fingertips or with fingers wrapped around to grip the shaker for varying timbres. The flat ends give added tone possibilities and provide a solid, non-rolling base when not in use. These shakers are sure to add visual and percussive excitement to any performance.
