| Customer Reviews: A Musical Toy Drum June 28, 2010 Karen A. Amrhein (Baltimore, Maryland) The "House of Marbles" wooden drum is actually a fine little musical instrument. The drum gives a good side-drum sound, especially when worn suspended with the included neck strap. I'm a composer, and I used this drum for a promenade for toy instruments I wrote and recorded, and I couldn't be happier with the drum sound. I played the instrument softly (p) through loudly (f) and it responded well throughout. I'm sure one could break the drumhead if one smacked it overly hard repeatedly, but it showed no signs of distress with my repeated forte hits. I strongly recommend this sturdy and whimsical instrument.
Wooden Drum Review February 18, 2010 Marcia Troy 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The drum fell apart after one use. A kind and talented friend helped me by discovering and fixing the problem. See his notes below:
I believe that there is a design/manufacturing flaw in what I'll call a "Drum Tension Clamp" I've attached a photo of the part and a sketch of what I think should be the correct configuration of the clamp. I would also add that the current configuration of the clamp allows for loosening of the acorn nut that places the tension of the clamp system and allows the acorn nut come off which then allows the whole clamp to come apart.
Thank you,
Marcia Troy
Note: I will also try to forward a copy of the picture to you.
