Well, I'm a musician and I'm trying to think of the easiest simplest instrument and, I think you're right. You'd be surprised at just how much technique goes into playing tambourine, maracas, claves and other simple percussion instruments. I heard one guy play the tambourine and it was amazing. It sounded almost like a whole drum set the way he did it.

Very informative to this 65y/o lifetime musician. Just beginning the study of Latin rythms.

Me and my friends just remember it as "scrapey fish"

My 4 year old just brought a frog with ridges in my house up to me and asked what it was called and she really loved playing along and actually had a few beats going by a third of the way through. Very cool video, thanks for teaching!

That's a coqui, made to imitate the Puerto Rican frog of the same name.

Very nice! I always wondered about the guiro, and now is the answer. Thanx for that M. Sanabria.

I never realized what that sound was in Latin songs. Very cool to know.

It's called macho because it looks like a phallus, but it's always breaking because people sit on it. 😂

Not a strong macho I see👀

I googled to find out what this instrument was called. The Thompson Twins used it a lot. Notably band member Alannah Currie used it on the track Who Can Stop The Rain. And it was all those little percussive sounds we loved about the Thompson Twins that made them unique.

The quiro was also on the main lands played by many natives through central and South America!

I'm no expert but I've found that most of these Latin instruments have a hundred different names and they're played in a hundred different ways by different traditions throughout Latin America. It's pretty fascinating how a seemingly simple instrument can be used with so much diversity. I'm a bit of an ameteur musicologist. I love learning about this stuff.

@@williammoreno-pp1og What is your people? I'm just a wasp from Florida but I love the blues and folk music and all kinds of music. It's more and more recognized just how much we owe to black people, creole people and all the repressed and discriminated against people for American music. Right now I'm learning the banjo and the history of the banjo is just fascinating. The banjo as we know it was probably invented by slaves but banjo like instruments have appeared in artworks going back to the beginning of the Columbian exchange throughout the American colonies and surrounding islands. Forgive me but this stuff is my passion. I don't mean to talk your ear off. Lol.

Gracias, Bobby. ¡Como siempre una excelente lección!

Great video at a great time for me. I just bought that LP Super Guiro that he's using. Great place to start for me.

Great lesson Bobby. I'm sending my students here to learn guiro!

I play drum set and watched the whole video. Respect and best wishes!

BRILLIANT!

Thank you for this video. I've been trying to explain to another percussionist. actually a music teacher, that his scraping in both directions puts the a weak and sometime off accent on what is supposed to be the down stroke. It throws the percussion breaks off big time. But he claims that "evens out the up-down motion" by not lifting the scraper from the guiro.

Love the vid bro

I love it🤗🤗🤗🤗

I like this instrument cuz is catchy

Spanish music or Latin music or whatever it's called, it's fascinating. So many individual percussionists playing all that up tempo stuff in complex syncopated patterns with ace precision. I'm more interested in adding a bit of percusion to my acoustic music but when you get all those guys together, you can't help but move.

thanks and God bless

Wat shop can I buy it in

Great

Mrs. Kenette had one of those. She was a former music teacher that I once had when I was at school. She has passed away from cancer. I love music and I want one of those for Christmas but I don’t know how to explain what it is to my parents, which is why I haven’t told them that I want a guiro. I am blind and was wondering how do you play it and if you could make a video that was accessible for the blind on how to plant.

Thanks for this I like this sound in the Gimme Shelter.
