Ugears - Mechanical Celesta

Assemble me. Let the celestial music play!

Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do. As Julie Andrews said in the Sound of Music, “once you have these notes in your heads you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up.” Ugears is proud to introduce the second DIY musical instrument in our collection, the Mechanical Celesta. Like the Ugears Hurdy-Gurdy, the Mechanical Celesta is both a wooden mechanical model and a functional musical instrument. This special musical model is a simpler version of a pianola, and includes elements of a piano, a music box, and a xylophone. There are two modes of playing the instrument: you can use the keys to strike the metal plates, producing musical notes over an octave range, from C to C, or you can “pre-program” the instrument by composing a melody on the player piano drum, then play it by turning the knob!
