Nikko's catalog is built around spring-powered pendulum metronomes that require no batteries and use hardened metal core parts designed for long service life. The lineup includes the entry-level Standard and Standard plus models, the metallic-finish Lamiere, Large Font and Clear Font variants intended for improved tempo readability, a Pouch model, and several wooden-cased designs such as the Wooden Jumbo, Wooden Regular, Wooden So, and Wooden mini advance, along with the lacquered Tamamushi Lac finish. The Standard model covers a tempo range of roughly 40 to 208 BPM and is offered in a variety of colorways.
