Trophy FN75 Country Washboard Beige

Recipient loved it.

The washboard was well made, being supplied with four thimbles would have been preferable to three. The most surprising thing about it was just how loud it was. I am part of a Hillbilly band when using the washboard in the local pub it overpowered all of the other instruments. I have been looking at possible ways to reduce the volume.

Husband really enloyed going back to his teenage years playing it

Very disappointed. This is small - nowhere near a full-sized washboard. The dimensions are wrong in the description: the actual size is 46 x 22 cm and the playing surface is only 22 x 18. More of a toy than an instrument. Very disappointed. Wouldn't even have given it one star but had to to post the review.

Excellent.. My skiffle group is now complete .. Happy days !

Yea, I know, it didn't cost me much money, and I apparently got what I paid for; however, I figured with a title of "Authentic Musical Washboard", that you'd be able to make *some* kind of pleasing musical sounds on it. Oh, how wrong I was.... This thing would look small on a short statured midget! The metal surface on this joke of a product is literally about 7 inches X 12 inches (if that). You're not going to get any kind of resonance on something that tiny. A midget couldn't even wash his/her drawers on something this size should he/she decide to use it to wash their drawers! Obviously, they're not going to be able to make any music on this match box cover, so you may as well wash yer drawers with it. The only song that you'll literally be able to play on this thing is Steve Miller's "Take the Money and Run"! The only musicality you'll get out of this toy is the single note that is sounded as you toss this piece of crap into your aluminum garbage can!
