I've had this wonderful instrument for over a month and I'm absolutely in LOVE with it. It's the first instrument I own and I've never played one before. I did try a Hang drum which got me interested, but the RAV Vast has a better sound that stays longer.I find it very intuitive, pretty much anywhere you hit it, it sounds good. Of course, the more you practice, the more things you discover.
There's a lot of tutorials, free and paid, but you can have so much fun if you just improvise! The lower notes sound very meditative, it's very calming. And the higher notes sound beautiful and combine in such a way that you can play something slow and switch to a faster rhythm in a quite harmonious way. I ordered it from Canada and it got here in less than two weeks! That was a very nice surprise. It comes very well protected too. Can't wait to get better and order my next one :) |
A week after receiving my Rav Vast in B Major, I am really very happy to have chosen this scale. It makes me peaceful, it invites meditation. I love the heat and the light that emanate from it. I already had a tonguedrum, but the Rav outclasses it by far. My relatives are won over by the sound, the beauty of the instrument. Thank you to the whole team for the answers to my many questions!

I've had my B Major Rav for just about a month now, but it has been such an extraordinary series of discoveries with it already. I'd watched so many videos before it arrives, but nothing can really prepare for you just how beautiful this instrument really is until you are playing it yourself. The deep resonance of the notes, the incredible tone, how responsive it is. The harmonic possibilities. I've been collecting percussion instruments from all over the world for decades, but within days it was clear that this was the most special one yet. The B Major scale really feels like a good place to start for me, the best instrument for its warm overtones and overall brightness of melody. This is an instrument of the highest craftsmanship and aural delights. I couldn't be more pleased with it--or the ways the the Rav team stays in touch or reaches out to you.

I bought my first ravvast a year ago, and since then I ended up owning 4 of them. I am really happy with the professional, and kind communication with the team. Helping me to choose the right drum and fast delivery. B Major has a perfect scale for our Sound Baths and meditation and has a very happy, also Spa-like sound that fits the purpose of gentle waking up after the relaxation. It has a really heartwarming sound in a way that makes us smile and stay positive. Our clients just love ravvasts. It is very relaxing to wake up after the session with their sounds. It is hard to say which one of 4 ravvasts we bought is our favorite. Each fits a purpose and we love to change between more melo, sad scales and happy scales. I bought a few drums, hoping to choose one for ourselves but ended up keeping all of them. It is impossible to let any of them go.
