Abstract
A fabricated quijada has two opposing frames. Each frame includes a proximal handle, a distal batter panel, and a central region for housing a resonance box. The resonance box houses a plurality of longitudinally aligned teeth and has a top surface with a plurality of transverse ridges. The handles of the opposing frames are connected by a trapezoidal link such that the frames taper away from each other along a longitudinal axis. An operator holds the fabricated quijada by the handles and generates a rattle sound by striking the batter panel. A ratchet sound may be generated by running a stick across the transverse ridges on the top of the resonance box.
Claims5
A fabricated quijada comprising:
- two opposing frames, each having an elongate handle at a proximal end, a batter panel at its distal end, and a resonance box between the proximal and distal ends;
- and,
- a frame link connecting the handles of the opposing frames such that they are oriented at about a 30°-5° angle relative to each other;
- wherein the resonance box includes a plurality of teeth linearly aligned along a longitudinal direction, and the teeth are sized and configured to rattle when the batter panel is impinged upon.
