Oftentimes, beginning percussion students think percussion only includes a drum. This gives those students the exposure to realize that they will be learning many more instruments than they originally thought.

Sometimes even the quality of sound bothers them (like nails on a chalkboard do to some people), so we greatly appreciate all of the support to get these headphones.
