Low-pitched xylophones of Thailand and Cambodia with a range of just over two octaves, consisting of a rectangular box-shaped trough resonator mounted on very short legs, with usually 17 bars of bamboo or hardwood strung on cords suspended on hooks set into the end-boards of the resonator. Tuning paste is applied to the underside of the bars and they are struck with two beaters. For the Thai and Cambodian metallophones of the same range and tuning, use "ranat thum lek."
