JAWS



Believe it or not this is a traditional instrument of Peru – and the inspiration for many other modern instruments that make similar sounds. Completely cleaned and boiled, the donkey teeth remain in the jaw and rattle when the flat side bone is struck with the bottom of a fist. Hold the jaw with your free hand at the skinny end and pound out a beat with two or three beats per measure. It’s fun and it’s a really cool gift for the musician who has everything - but one of these. No animals are ever killed for JAMTOWN instruments; they die of old age or are taken for other purposes. 16”
