Meinl 4-pc Egg Shaker Set

Pretty good, thought they were going to be a little too small sounding or for kids but I’ve recorded them a few times on my tracks and they sound pretty decent, each one varies in loudness and timbre, easy to learn with and would buy again from this brand.

Actually bought these for my kid as the other egg shakers for children are painted and did not seem sturdy. These are good quality and produce a good sound. Weight is nice and they are all different. My son loves playing with these!

Very pleased with this set of PAI shakers. All 4 have different sound levels. They seem sturdy. I like the size of the shakers and the bright colors. Perfect for use at an open mic.

These 4 egg shakers came at a bargain price and are made by a reputible percussion company. I use them for minor percussion while listening to or playing music and plan to use them for studio and meditative reasons. They are all clearly labeled by sound level. They each carry a distinct tone so if you are using them all at the same time, you can pick their sound out individually. The red and black are the loud and extra loud eggs, and they have a tinny sound. For my personal preference I use and like the white and grey eggs the most. They have soft sounds (especially the white) and are much more soothing than rattling on the ears. It all depends on what sound you are going for. Holding the egg sideways and swishing it back and forth can create a much quieter sound from the louder eggs that can be more soothing that normally shaking them. The shape of the eggs makes them fairly versatile - there is so much more one can do with these shakers than you would believe. Remember that the sound depends on not just the product but how you hold and handle it! :) I would recommend this to any musician for studio or jam session use. It would also be a nice addition to a drum circle and would add a nice touch to a minor percussion set or music teacher's inventory. I would think it should also make for great meditative use, especially the white egg. This would also suffice as an amusing toy for a child of any age, and it seems safe for biting, throwing, stomping etc. as the shell is very durable. I would caution that its advertised use is specifically for percussion, though. The contents of the egg are no doubt harmful to children if they find a way out of the shell. Buy it, the price is a value and it makes for a fun addition to every day life.

I don't know where they grow the cluckers that laid these eggs, but they were clean, dry, and made the noises as promised in the description. I mainly use them to play rattlesnake pranks on my family and coworkers. Sometimes they are handy for music. I can fit three in my mouth.

I loved these egg shakers. They sound loud, with a clean and consistent tone, perfect for keeping the rhythm in any type of music. The quality is evident from the moment you pick them up: they’re sturdy, comfortable, and don’t feel flimsy like others I’ve tried. I would definitely buy them again!

Each shaker has a distinct, pleasant sound, but all the eggs blend well when shaken in a group.

Love the sound and the feel

Laut genug gute Größe und schön bunt - mehr muss nicht.

These eggs are superb quality. Although made of two halves, the plastic is thick enough and the join solid enough that I have no fear of them splitting, and I suspect they could take quite a lot of rough treatment. The medium, loud and very loud eggs are quite similar in the sound they make, just more harsh towards the very loud end. The soft shaker is completely different - probably filled with sand instead of what sounds like grit in the others. It makes a wonderful shhhhh sound that is very easy to control - my favourite by far, although maybe too quiet for playing with too many other instruments; it would be perfect for home/studio recording where you can control the levels. These eggs are great to have at jam sessions where there are people who don't play and instrument - anyone can grab one of these and join in.

Diferentes sonidos, perfecto producto

We absolutely love these. We plan on buying many sets. It's a bit pricey but the quality is there. The sound is crisp and responsive and the egg shaped allows for versitily of sound. Great product!

Great variety
