Product description
Grade A Rosewood wooden xylophone piece from the same rosewood tree letting the better sound than the keys from different tree.  Foot rails jackfruit wood Is a solid wood with lacquer polished cut golden edges line at the inner edge of the eyebrow.
The Ranat Ek, "also xylophone" is a Thai musical instrument in the percussion family that consists of 22 wooden bars suspended by cords over a boat-shaped trough resonator and struck by two mallets. It is used as a leading instrument in the piphat ensemble.
Ranat ek bars are typically made from rosewood (Dalbergia oliveri; Thai: Mai ching chan) and they are two types of ranat ek mallets. The hard mallets create the sharp and bright sound, normally used for faster playing. The soft mallets create the mellow and softer tone, used for slower songs.
The twenty-Two hardwood bars on this ranat ek are strung together with a rope that is threaded through a pair of holes drilled in the keys at each of their acoustical nodes. The ends of this rope are attached to hooks mounted on the end-boards of the instrument's gracefully-curved, pedestal-mounted trough resonator case with just enough tension to keep all the keys from having any contact with the case itself. Tuning of the bars to the desired scale is achieved by manipulating their length and thickness, and by adding or subtracting the amount of tuning paste, made from beeswax and metal shavings, attached to their bottom side.  The bars are struck with slender wood beaters that have thinly padded hardwood knobs at their end.
