How does this thing sound?



[auburncatmaria]

@eksmaan If you want to hear how good the berimbau sounds, watch the response video.

Mechanical and sound engineers designed this? Or did they copy the design of someone else? Truth is this berimbau was copied, not designed.

@hawkecdo

Well we just combined various engineering techniques, while improving on them as we went along. All of this can be found on the link to our website found in the information section right under the video. Thanks for your interest in our berimbau!
