Soft Tone Won't Blast Out the Band
These bones are great for players who want instruments that won't overpower their bandmates.

Varying from 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch thick, Pea Patch flat bones are somewhat similar to paint stirrers (which frankly are too thin to pack much of a wallop). So the tone is a bit anemic. And at just 1 inch in width, these bones can only achieve a rather limited dynamic tonal range.

This can be a major advantage for novice players though. After all, if the bones you're rattling stay in the background, then you don't have to worry as much about "walking" on your bandmates.

Experienced players might feel compelled to discover new and practical ways these bones can enhance a tune. But whether you're a newbie or expert, everyone likes adding exotic woods to their collection at rock bottom prices.

Still, if you want bones with a little more heft and weight - or if you need the extra power it takes to be heard above the clamor of the crowd, then try the Pea Patch Minstrel Style version instead.

Why Choose these Bones?
Pea Patch Flat bones are nicely crafted "soft toned" instruments that fit comfortably in any size hand. Their relatively long length gives you extra leverage which makes them easy to play. (They work pretty good when you play them backwards too.) And you can get them in several exotic woods at low cost.

So if you want a set of easy-to-play soft-toned exotic wood instruments at a budget price, then these bones are for you.

Here's What You Get:
One pair (2 individual bones, like in the photo). That's enough to rattle the bones in one hand.

Specs

Rosewood is a rare exotic heavy dense wood that delivers a high sharp tone.

It varies in color from shades of brown to red or chocolate to violet, and is irregularly streaked with black. The grain is typically straight, but occasionally wavy. Its texture is medium to rather coarse and the wood has large pores that are quite irregular in size and position. The surface is slightly oily or waxy in appearance, somewhat gritty to the touch, and very resistant to decay and insect attack.

When cut, rosewood releases a fragrant aroma similar to roses. The fragrance has also been reported when the wood is burned (but you are wise not to mention this aspect to your detractors). Rosewood has a distinctive taste, I am told - and I will just take their word for it.

None of the charts I found rated rosewood with a specific gravity greater than 1.0. This surprised me as rosewood is a very hard and dense wood. So I tossed several pairs of Mr Bones Rosewood Bones (which are made by the same folks who make Flat World Bones) into a tub of water to see what happens. As I expected, the darker, denser pairs sunk. But the lighter color pairs floated. So some pairs will have a specific gravity greater than 1.0, but the specific gravity of some pairs will be less.
