ABSTRACT:
In addition to the single combination of a tone generator such as a string with a hammer, a further combination is provided by an auxiliary tone generator such as an elongated thin metal strap and/or an auxiliary hammer preferably accompanied by a mechanism for effecting selective striking contact for tonal vibration between the tone generator or generators and the hammer or hammers when an associated common key is operated. Selectively combined simultaneous striking by the hammer or hammers generates tones of enriched tone color and volume by single key operation.
