- "A jizz band without a kloo horn should find a new gig."
- ―a popular saying among aficionados[3]
Thekloo horn was a double-reeded wind instrument, larger than aSlitherhorn and aFizzz[1] (roughly 1.5 meters tall), and one of the most commonly used instruments inthe galaxy. It was considered a primary instrument for musicians specializing in the field ofJizz orJatz. The mouthpiece of a kloo horn extended into a handheld "S" shaped body where players could use their hands to make adjustments for tone and pitch. The average kloo horn weighed approximately 1.2 kilograms. By the pricing standards used late in theGalactic Civil War, a well-kept kloo horn could be purchased for roughly 2,000New Republiccredits.
