5Indestructible, Excellent Tone  Oct 24, 2008 By New England Yankee
This is the most like a wood or gourd guiro you are going to get. I think they actually have a unique sound of their own, though, and I like it. Neither as hard-sounding as a metal guiro or as uneven as some hand-made guiros can sound, these sit nicely in the mix. They can be played hard or soft. The sound can be varied with different sticks (two provided), and you can also provide some variation by manipulating the thumb holes in the back.

Indestructible is good! Drop it, kick it, toss it across the room or into a band equipment box. Nothing hurts it! I'm not advocating abusing it, but it's good to know it can take it!

5Indestructable  Jun 19, 2010 By WoodRat
It is loud! It cuts through the mix in a loud combo. This guiro will not crack or break when dropped or crammed into a case/gig bag... Sounds like plastic, not like a gourd, but the sound is not a bad sound, just different. Recommended.

3It is fine, but a little "bright" sounding for me.  Jan 07, 2012 By J. Lewallen
I bought this when I was recording an album and needed a Guiro for one of the songs. It's very large and well made. The only critique I have with this Guiro is that, being made of synthetics/plastics, it's a little on the bright sounding side, especially with the plastic scrapers that come with the Guiro. In my case I was in a studio and the engineer was able to make it sound like I wanted to achieve. I think I am going to get or make a wooden scraper and see if that sounds better in case I decide to use this in a live situation.
