Wondrous Items

The wondrous items in this chapter are musical instruments. Any class can use musical instruments, but the items are particularly appealing to bards. A bard can use certain instruments as implements for bard powers as well as bard paragon path powers. A few instruments also have powers that are enhanced if used by a bard who has the Song of Rest class feature.

Using a Musical Instrument: Like other wondrous items, a musical instrument doesn’t take up an item slot. However, to use an instrument’s properties and powers, you must be holding and playing the instrument as appropriate: strumming a lute, sounding a horn, and so on.
