Description
Traditional Wood Tambourines from the MEINL collection are the perfect choice for ultra-bright, shimmering jingle accents that respond beautifully at any volume level. The sturdy wooden frame delivers a natural, warm attack followed by the sensitive cutting sounds of the jingles with a slight high-pitched sustain. An ergonomic grip gives you total control of the instrument. This model is equipped with solid brass jingles that deliver ultimate clarity and cut and are the brightest sounding from MEINL. Their pitch is high, making it easy to provide a strong rhythmic foundation with other instruments at any volume level. These tambourines are great for percussionists and drummers, but any musician or vocalist will find them extremely useful in their playing as well.
