Boomwhackers 8-Note Diatonic C Major Scale Set

Boomwhackers are tuned percussion tubes that produce pitched tones when struck against surfaces or each other. This 8–note diatonic set covers a full octave in C major, from C to C'. Each tube is made from lightweight plastic and produces a single note through resonance when tapped. The colour–coded system assigns a different hue to each pitch, making them immediately recognisable for group work and educational settings where visual cues accelerate learning and coordination across players of varying experience.

The tubes measure different lengths to produce their respective pitches, with longer tubes generating lower frequencies and shorter ones producing higher tones. Constructed from durable plastic tubing, they withstand repeated strikes without degrading pitch accuracy. The set includes C, D, E, F, G, A, B, and high C notes. No assembly or tuning is required. The tubes are hollow and capped at one end, allowing air column vibration to create clear, resonant tones that project well in classroom and performance environments.
