Descripción
High-pitched xylophones of Thailand and Cambodia with a range of three octaves, consisting of a boat-shaped trough resonator mounted on a pedestal, with usually 21 bars of bamboo or hardwood strung on cords suspended on hooks set into the end-boards of the resonator. Tuning paste is applied to the underside of the bars and they are struck with two beaters. For the Thai and Cambodian metallophones of the same range and tuning, use "ranat ek lek."
