Description:
The Wittner Taktell Penguin is a mechanical metronome for keeping time during music practice. Its animal-shaped design gives it a distinctive look, while the swinging pendulum provides a clear visual tempo reference. The printed scale includes tempo markings from Largo to Prestissimo.
Wittner describes this model as a full-quality metronome with long running time, high accuracy and reliability. Wind it just before use, and do not store it fully wound to help extend the life of the main spring. After use, move the slider to 200 before securing the pendulum to help avoid scratching the scale.
