Description Technical Specs The Inside Story
 
Walnut is a fine domestic wood that delivers a warm spunky low tone.

My first pair of wooden bones were walnut. They produced a relatively warm tone and were heavy enough to provide the kinetic force I needed to make them click with ease. The wood is pleasing to the touch and the mellow sound is perfect under many situations. An excellent choice for both new and experienced players.

Walnut wood is warm and inviting. The color varies from light grayish brown to deep chocolate brown to an almost black purplish brown. The grain is slightly open and usually straight, but can also be wavy or irregular. The texture is somewhat coarse but uniform. The surface is generally dull, but it may develop a lustrous patina after years of use.

Fine woodworkers enjoy working this chocolate colored wood that emits a pleasingly distinctive aroma.

A select few Shooting Star Walnut bones might have served a higher purpose in a former life. Crafted from spiffy distressed wood, they produce a brighter tone and come festooned with funky little boreholes - all yours at no extra charge.
