The Maple RhymBlock is the industry standard go-to tone-wood percussion woodblock.
All the Native Tongue Percussion RhymBlock’s are a versatile and durable reinforced solid hardwood woodblock for drummers and percussionists to incorporate into their drum and percussion kits as well as a comfortable and effective handheld woodblock percussion instrument.
The RhymBlock is engineered for durability with Patent Pending side slit reinforcement plates and an Edge Guard to protect the striking edge from wear and tear.
Along with handheld play, there are several NTP mounting systems the RhymBlock is designed to be paired with for stick, hand, or foot pedal play.
With the RhymClip stick play mounting system, the RhymBlock can quickly be mounted on and off most standard drum rims in any unobstructed position around the rim with height adjustment above the rim while the contoured shape maintains equal height and side distance parallel to the rim across the full width of the block. Ideal for rimshots, cross sticking, ghost noting, singular or interplay with the drum.
The innovative hand play RhymStryker mounting system mounts in any unobstructed position around the rim of a hand drum with height adjustability above the drum head. It incorporates a padded strike plate above the RhymBlock enabling the player to freely incorporate woodblock patterns into their two-handed drum play without the interruption of converting back and forth from stick play.
With the NTP Rod Mount Bracket the RhymBlock can be mounted onto a traditional percussion rod post setup. Additionally, for stick free hand play the NTP Rod Mount Stryker can be placed above the RhymBlock. For foot pedal play, the Rod Mount Bracket can be used with a common foot pedal bracket incorporating a rod mount.
