According to the present invention there is provided a tubular support handle (length - 0.70m, diameter-25mm), chrome plated, when made out of metal,(letter @tN@$ "N" of accompanying drawing), comprising: 1) One or more hand-operated pedals,(letter E of accompanying drawing),held attached to the handle by two plastic straps(letter "D" of accompanying drawing), buttoned up together(letter"D/2" of accompanying drawing), and resting on a foan rubber grip(letter "C" of accompanying drawing), for arresting the sliding movement of the pedal itself while it is being gripped and sqeezed to get the sound,to it assigned by the electronic device, out; 2) 9V alcaline battery, plus one spare, with electric power cable connected to it, wherein the two batteries are placed in a small case belted around the handle, (letter "B" of accompanying drawing); 3) One or two adjustable extensions are provided for more controls to be mounted on the suuport handle, (letter "L" of accompanying drawing, showing two butterfly screw bolts to block extensions); 4) Shoulder belt for playing the instrument baldric wise, in a guitar fashion,(letter "I" of accompanying drawing).
5) Adjustable double clamp, (letter"A" of accompanying drawing), which joins the tubular handle to the hold means of the electronic instrument.
In order to play the electronic instrument using the baldric wise support handle, one hand, either left or right, must grip the pedal placed on the support handle, sqeezing it, while the other hand, holding a stick, beats on the instrument wherein pads are provided; otherwise the instrument is played with fingers wherein it is provided with buttons.
