    Hi. I’ve been using some 50mm plastic Aslatua for about 9months but it sounds like larger ones give a better “click”. I’ve spent a lot of hours with these smaller ones and just wanted to ask if the larger ones would require much adjustment to my playing? Cheers. I’m over in Portugal and there’s not much choice but next time someone visits from the UK I could get them to bring some (although customs may be confused as to what they are 😊).

    • @artisaninstruments
      @artisaninstruments 4 месяца назад

      Hey Alan Thanks for reaching out. Super cool that you live in Portugal 🇵🇹 I visited there back in 2002 Absolutely love the place!! There is some difference in the sound for sure especially with the large Papa Kashakas. I would say that the small Laka Kashakas are the easiest to catch. The technique stays pretty much the same from size to size. Once one gets proficient I would say that you would have no problem switching between balls. Thank for the great question! 🙏 If you are interested we ship our Kashakas all over this fine planet 🌍 including Portugal 🇵🇹 Thanks and have a great day! Kristian power

    can you tell me how long the string is between your kashakas? i’ve struggling with catching and want to blame it on the string length - it’s 4 inches

    • @artisaninstruments
      @artisaninstruments Год назад

      Hey there Blue Bass 2 thanks for reaching out. When it comes to the rope length we have discovered that it is all really dependent on the size of the players hands. Also when you are first learning to play it is advantageous to have your rope a little longer then normal. This helps aid in the catching. Not sure if you have seen our video on sizing your Kashakas Here is the link ruclips.net/video/V1JAfmFE5z8/видео.html This should give you some insight to the length of rope that you will need to give your self the best opportunities to learn this fun but challenging instrument! Please feel free to contact us if you have any more questions or you just want to share your experience and thoughts 💭 Thanks and have a wonderful day Kristian power 🙏

    • @artisaninstruments
      @artisaninstruments 2 года назад

      Good day WahtNub Thanks for reaching out to us here at Artisan Instruments!! You are right about the top grab it is a difficult one to master. My tip for you would be to try your best to relax your hand. This allows your fingers to be a little bit bent and try to put some space between your fingers. With this extra space between your fingers your hand becomes bigger and allows more room to catch the Kashaka. Also by having your hand nice and relaxed will allow the balls to move freely and move to make room for the other ball shaker to fit in your hand. I hope this helps you today WahtNub and have a wonderful day Rap with ya soon 🙏

I’m disappointed to see that people put stuff up TO TEACH, but have no idea themselves. I’ve been to enough workshops to say this, and carry on with my search elsewhere, how to play the cascas.

I am sorry to have disappointed you and will be working hard on some future videos that will explain more on how to learn to play the Cas Cas.
