4.0 out of 5 stars If Only They Turned Up To Eleven. . ., April 4, 2009

Eggz are so inexpensive and sturdy that they make great giveaways for children. That's how I discovered them - someone gave them to my kids as gifts. I brought one to church to play with the praise band one Sunday just for fun and I was hooked. The tone of these shakers really is better than others - not too bright, not too dark, and not too "gravelly". The plastic shell is just the right thickness. You can adjust the tone by holding with two fingers (bright), your whole hand (dark), or something in between. The sharpness of the attack can be shaped with not only your technique, but point which way you point the instrument. My preferred method is to hold one pointing up in my hand and one pointing forward with my thumb and forefinger, but I have used them other ways, including as mallets on congas and drum kit for an interesting effect. Calling Eggz "toys", "party favors", "fun" and "stocking stuffers" does a grave injustice to an instrument that I find indispensable at church and pro gigs.

I agree with another reviewer that they are too quiet. That was the reason I developed my "two egg" technique. Without a microphone, they can get lost in a percussion ensemble. At this price, two for each hand would help, but it would be nice if they had a knob that turned up to "eleven".

I was looking forward to the 24-pack of eggs. When my package arrived there was only 1 inside. I called Sam Ash and was told they would refund my money but could not send me 24 for the price listed by Amazon which was $1.49 + 4.99 shipping and handling.
I was looking for a bargain and this one did not pan out. I would rather have had the eggs but was satisfied with the refund. I cannot believe the add is still online.

3.0 out of 5 stars Possibly too quiet for some live situations, March 22, 2009

I was looking forward to receiving this stylish little egg, but was surprised to find that it was much quieter than my other egg, which is a Maxtone. While this one is probably great for home and possibly studio use, I found that its too quiet for a live environment and its much harder to get a distinct 'click'. It looks very cool though!
