Schoenhut’s Elite Spinet is a musical instrument of the highest quality. Certain to enhance your child’s love of music with its endearing melodic tones. Chromatically tuned, the lovely chime-like notes are produced by little hammers striking precision-ground, German steel music rods (versus the conventional taut wires used in full-sized models). Schoenhut’s® patented Learning System, with its play-by-color teaching method, makes playing simple and fun. A removable color strip fits behind the keys to guide small fingers from chord to chord. The chart also works on adult keyboards, since keys on Schoenhut® toy pianos are of corresponding width. This teaches children proper “finger stretch” from the very beginning. The accompanying Songbook contains a collection of familiar tunes. This Learning System has been specially designed to build a child’s confidence and develop basic playing skills.

The Schoenhut Bowed Psaltery is a twenty-two stringed, fully chromatic musical instrument. It is arranged similar to a piano; the white keys on one side and the black keys on the other. By having each string tuned to a specific pitch, it is easy to attain a pleasing violin-like sound without fretting any strings. T
he Psaltery was a popular instrument during the middle Ages; it is depicted in various forms in manuscripts and carvings. It was brought to England during the time of the crusades and is thought to have been based on the North African instrument the Qanun. By the 18th century it had developed into several other instruments, hit with hammers it became the Hammered Dulcimer, fitted with a keyboard mechanism the Harpsichord. These two eventually combined to produce the most important instrument of modern times – the piano.
