- Asarato Loops - A new asarato created by Noble of the Kamo-jirushi Furuzoku, an asarato group from the Kansai region. The attack and shake sounds produced by the spheres made from compressed bamboo powder and beads are very well-balanced. The most popular size, 4.8cm, is relatively light, making it easy for anyone, regardless of age or gender, to play. Features: Feature 1: The use of beads allows for a sharp, crisp shake sound. Beginners can easily tell if their shaking technique is correct. Feature 2: Because bamboo powder is used, the attack sound is relatively quiet. It's perfect for practice when the sound of an asarato or patica is a bit too loud, but you want something more than just a muted sound. Feature 3: Since the material is bamboo powder, it can be easily repaired with wood glue if it breaks. *Price is not negotiable. Type: Maracas
