LP Purple Block Guiro
As for as the block sound goes, LP have got it right again....
i gave it 4 star on sound, as a bit more thought or engineering could have been put into the guiro....i think the scales are too far arpart and very deep....
maybe i am being a bit unfair as i pwould have like more scales closer together and more "shallow".

An excellent product
This is LP's best Jam Block. It has a nice jam block sound, and it also functions as a Guiro (scraper). You can use a timbale stick, or a drum stick, as scraper.
My grand-children like to scrape this.
Very nice.

Big boy
It is very big, heavy, but not with the best richness of tone. It really is just a block. Nothing specific. I don't use it very often, it just doesn't fit with metal or rock style very easy on live sessions. It is great for practice, there its perfect. I would say it is for better percussionists.

Jam Block Guiro
Good loud block. The Guiro is awkward to play though because of its comparatively small size and angle.

Great sound, adequate guiro
As with LP products in general and the other Jam Blocks, this is a great product, sounds good and loud enough, virtually indestructable and blends well with the other Jam Blocks.
However, the guiro function, allthough not completely wasted, is more of a novelty. The area to strike is too short and does not sound guiro-esque enough to replace a real guiro. But it's a great added bonus.
