Can it do Expelliarmus ??

Looks good, CM. I know zilch about the relative merits of batons, so lets have some details...

- Material
- Balance in the hand
- Sensitivity

Stuff like that...

So, do you choose the Baton, or does it choose you? And have you ever had to throw one at a Cellist or something?

I'm still trying to figure the Expelliarmus out... I'll let you know Smile

It's really fantastic Smile It feels like an extension of my hand. The center of balance is right where the shaft meets the grip so when you conduct, the lightness is doubled, but it also has a sort of momentum to it. It kind of takes on a life of it's own, so I can keep time and read the score way better than I could before. I love it!

It's shaft is maple and the grip is ebony. It's 12 inches long Smile definitely made for the smaller hand- suits me very well Smile
