A friend made this "Rhythm Stick" for Dizzy Gillespie. It's four feet in length, made out of walnut wood and has modified finger cymbals attached. Back-in-the-day, you could hear Dizzy shaking and kicking it while walking through airports. Imagine doing that today?! It currently resides at the University of Idaho.
