Why 20 notes 
Educators & players acknowledge the 5+ highest notes on a traditional lead pan are rarely used and do not produce a clean sound.  Taking this into account, we designed the C20 with this new concept thus providing these valuable benefits:   
Additional room on the pan allowed Panyard to design, shape, and position the notes providing stellar sound and stability across the range 
Makes teaching and learning easier and less intimidating
Easier to navigate the pan
Steelpan in the Classroom – Making Life Easier for Teachers!
If you teach or direct music at any level, consider a C-20.  
Steel Pans are a low barrier to entry musical instrument and have been used in music classrooms for over 50 years with massive growth this century.  They are one of the most effective tools to teach music to students of all ages and ability levels.  Students are inspired to play these spirited and fascinating instruments, making teaching and learning all aspects of music a breeze.
The C-20 Lead Pan is particularly versatile in music classrooms.  The 20-note chromatic range and clearly labeled notes make learning easier and less intimidating than with other steelpans.  With the standard note layout, this Pan is extremely durable, offering a much larger dynamic range and will integrate seamlessly into music classrooms including existing Steelbands.  The perfect choice for K-8 general music to High School and University music and Steelband programs.  
Do you already use Jumbie Jams in your classroom?...adding the C-20 is a simple and affordable way to take teaching and learning to the next level.  Students that started on a Jumbie will be energized to play on a C-20 and inspired to potentially make Steelpan their musical voice.  The Jumbie Jam and C-20 are great instruments to prepare students for advanced music education and opportunities to participate in Steelbands at the High School and University levels.  Also, an easy way to start a new school ensemble or add a unique sound to any musical group, Jazz Band, Concert Band, Orchestra, Percussion Ensemble, and beyond.
Existing Steel Pan Programs – your troubles are over
As you know, acquiring Pans has always been difficult and expensive with extremely long delivery times, sometimes over a year.  The C-20 is the answer to those dreams of expanding your Steelband program!  IMMEDIATE SHIPPING of high-quality pans at a very affordable price.    
Testimonial 
Our C-20s fit seamlessly into our existing steelband. These pans will get lots of use at my school from steelband to general music classes. The students love learning about the innovative process of making these instruments but of course they love playing them even more.
