Percussion Plus Honestly Made basket shaker

Introducing the Percussion Plus Honestly Made basket shaker

The Percussion Plus Honestly Made basket shaker is a simple and light instrument that produces a strong, percussive shaker tone. It’s the perfect addition to any African drum ensemble or hand percussion collection.

The basket is crafted by independent makers in Ghana, where it is hand-woven using sustainable resources and filled with beads and recycled materials. Each instrument is unique and always built to the highest standard.

Each instrument is hand made using traditional materials and methods. See below for more information about the Honestly Made range of instruments from Percussion Plus.

These items are musical instruments not toys and there may be small parts on or in some of them. Younger players should use them under supervision.

Teaching the basics of music

Shakers are often used in harmony with other instruments, so the player must be able to demonstrate timed precision when shaking them, which is why they are a great way to develop a child’s rhythm, coordination and listening skills.

This basket shaker can be used on its own, in a pair or with another instrument in the player’s free hand, which means that children can develop their skills naturally and can continue to learn new things as they improve.
