Description

Khomus with minimal gaps, together with technological features of production process, which are a distinguishing feature of the instruments of the "new school" by I.N. Gotovtsev, provide high sensitivity and bright, bold sound with a high maximum volume. The frame of the khomus is unexpectedly thin and elegant, with tapering decks of minimum volume, while they are resistant to compression. The mechanics of the tongue are far from ideal - it abounds in extraneous sounds, depending on the direction and force of the impact, as well as on the current nature of the movement. Ignoring the overtones, you can beat it with any speed. Anyone who takes a garb in his hand for the first time will immediately get the expected - colorful and lots of unusual effects.
