Good percussion
Anonymous 20.07.2015
The egg shaker is a good investment, giving you the ability to add some natural percussion to your recordings for a very moderate price.

The egg shaker itself is all black, except for the "Thomann Music Is Our Passion" text on one side of the egg which is somewhere between white and grey. There is a quite visible and uneven seam (not as in textile, but as the molding together of two pieces of plastic) in the middle of the egg. I am not bothered by it as long as the egg stays in one piece (which it has so far), but you can feel it if you slide your finger across the egg.

The egg shaker is a nice to have percussion instrument. It is loud enough to be heard in moderately noisy environments. It incidentally also works great as a toy for cats, being tested and approved by a persian cat several times.

Given the very low price, I think it is a no brainer to try it out if you need some percussion for one of your recordings. That, or if your pet needs a new toy to play around with that can sometimes be used as an instrument.

Always comes in handy
NEJC 28.05.2019
This egg is an absolute must with any acoustic setup. I use it at home for jams with an acoustic guitar and a cajon and it's a nice addition to the sound. It takes some time getting used to the technique of playing in correct timing, as you need to get the feeling for how the interior moves, but once you get the grip, it's easy to use. Looks cool too. Since the price is really affordable i bought a bunch of them and am giving them as presents to my musician friends. They love it.

You can shake it
oRRR 21.07.2020
This hard shell egg makes a very nice crisp and loud sound. I've never used an egg shaker before but within 10minutes I was able to produce some nice rhythms. By holding the egg tighter or cover/capsule with the other hand you can change the pitch of the sound. With a little practice I even made a rattle snake sound which is great for my viking/nature style music productions. This egg shaker is a must for every percussion collection. Low price but great possibilities and sounds.

Can't go wrong
Mihy1101 22.11.2020
As the title of this review suggests, you can't go wrong with ordering a few of these to either play yourself, or pass on to other band members or friends. It sounds great, and is dirt cheap.

Shakin All Over
DeeTee 15.05.2023
Shake This Egg and you get a light pleasant Shhhhwish of a Shaker Sound. Add some Live Shaker to your Tracks. Not the best Quality plastic to be fair, but it does the Job. Give it a go at only £0.80 ( at the time of buying ) you cant go wrong. Add it to your next order.

Free of Charge
Stookiebhoy 05.03.2018
Thomann very kindly sent me this shaker free of charge along with another purchase, which was a very nice touch. These things are great for a bit of audience participation for anyone who does acoustic gigs or likes busking....just throw them the shaker and get them to join in :) If that doesn't work it's always good for smacking the drummer with when he starts cranking the tempo up.

Nice Sound, Low Price, Fun to Use
Anonymous 22.03.2015
The title says most of it - these are inexpensive, fun to use, and work perfectly for me. Varying your hand movements lets you produce a nice range of sounds ranging from a soft swooshing to a hard and percussive attack.

I use them at all-acoustic jams, and they are exactly the right loudness to go with six or seven acoustic guitars all playing together. I found that their small size, comfortable egg shape, and inconspicuousness encourage shy people to try using them, which is great for friendly jam sessions.
This is a nice addition to my studio. I was looking for some small, inexpensive additions to my percussion section. These are made well and sound good.
