About this product
UGears Mechanical Celesta Model Kit
Description:
- Condition: 100% Brand New
- Brand: UGears
- Color: As picture shown
- Level: Advanced
- Number of components: 573
- Estimated time for assembly: 8 hours
- In addition to laser pre-cut high quality plywood boards, the model kit also includes cotton ropes, wooden balls and metal plates
- Like the Ugears Hurdy-Gurdy, the Mechanical Celesta is both a wooden mechanical model and a functional musical instrument
- This special musical model is a simpler version of a pianola, and includes elements of a piano, a music box, and a xylophone
- There are two modes of playing the instrument: you can use the keys to strike the metal plates, producing musical notes over an octave range, from C to C, or you can "pre-program" the instrument by composing a melody on the player piano drum, then play it by turning the knob
- In "manual mode" when you press a key, the hammer strikes the plate and the sound of the corresponding note is heard
- In "programmed melody mode" you arrange a series of boards along a rotating drum, then turn the drum as pins on each board trigger the hammers to strike the right notes
Features:
- Suitable for children over 14 years old
- Authentic decoration
- Official licensed product
- The Mechanical Celesta makes an original, thoughtful gift for birthdays or holidays, and is a great way for children to learn the notes of the C major scale
- Your audiences will be impressed by your creativity and ingenuity as you play original music on an instrument you built yourself
- Like all of our mechanical models, 3d puzzles, wooden puzzle boxes, robots.
