A perfectly fine sound for any professional setting. Highly recommended!

Used for a recent performance of Respighi's "Pines of Rome". Turning is very smooth, yet it's still plenty loud.
Works & sounds like it should, but isn't of the same quality as the name brands. It's fine if used occasionally & by the same person, but I wouldn't recommend it for say a school program (where it'll get a bit beat on & be used by several different players). For my purposes, I use it when I need that sound in theater shows, & it works perfectly for me, so no need to spend more on a name brand.
I purchased a new ratchet for my pit set up because I was tired of borrowing them and wanted my own. This is a great instrument! The chrome finish is very elegant and the tone is excellent. The handle is easy to turn even when it is at a less than optimum angle and there is little time to get to it. I would have given this item a 5 rating if it only had a better mounting clamp. Though the one provided is adequate I would much rather have a standard 3/8 inch mounting bracket that would easily secure to any standard LP style system.
Solidly constructed. A nice clean ratchet sfx. Clamps on to your 'toy rack' or can be held, and the handle can turn either way so your sound effect is always on time.
