Wix Stix 0479
My comments: A enthusiast who takes time in manufacturing, quality before quantity! Bruce started making didges in the mid-90s, this passion is still strong 30 years later! All Bruce trunks have been dried for a minimum of 12 months before being processed. Bruce does not use wax to reduce the size of his mouthpieces. Either the hole is the right diameter and in this case Bruce works the mouthpiece in a natural way. Either he uses an embouchure insert. A real plus for getting the most comfortable mouthpiece! Bruce's didgeridoos have an unbeatable quality of manufacturing, finish, playability and price ratio.
Stunning shade of eucalyptus shade. Didgeridoo with a resonant and soft sound, ideal for harmonics, meditative playing and wobbles. Ash mouthpiece .

Classification
This scale is the result of an air column/bell start ratio If we divide the diameter of the bell with that of the beginning of the air column we get a number between 1.5 and 3.5. We can classify all the didgeridoos in 4 large families. Each family groups the instruments with a similar character, simply based on the overall shape of the air column (conical/cylindrical) and on the diameter of the column (wide/narrow). The result is a simple and very reliable reading grid, making it easier to search and purchase on line.
The diameters are measured with a caliper, start of the air column after the mouthpîece. This ratio is very reliable for a didg having a air column with a 'smooth' internal work, in the case of a hollowed eucalyptus instrument it give an approach of the instrumental character.

A enthusiast who takes time in manufacturing, quality before quantity!
Bruce started making didges in the mid-90s, this passion is still strong 30 years later! He works with three different types of eucalyptus:
- Woolybutt
- Ironbark
- Box
All of its termite didges come from North Queensland and cut by a renowned Aboriginal owner. All its trunks were dried for a minimum of 12 months before being worked. Bruce does not use wax to reduce the size of his mouthpieces.
Either the natural hole is the right diameter and in this case Bruce works the mouthpiece in a natural way. Either he inserts a mouthpiece made of camphor wood known for its antibacterial qualities. Bruce and the only manufacturer to use this kind of insert technique. A real plus for obtaining a most comfortable and antibacterial mouthpiece.
