Frequently Asked Questions

Kolberg often uses African Mahogany or a similar dense hardwood for their claves, offering a good balance of hardness and tonal quality.
The resonance box amplifies the click but maintains the core tone; it enhances the fundamental frequency and adds sustain rather than altering the core articulation.
It's designed with a standard mounting point for easy attachment to most combination stands; you'll need a standard percussion clamp.
