Meinl Percussion TA1V-WB 10-Inch Vintage Wood Tambourine with Single Row Hammered Brass Jingles

MEINL has brought the old school tambourines back! The Vintage line of tambourines from MEINL are specifically designed to replicate sounds heard in the studio during the early era of blues, rock, R&B and soul. Solid brass jingles have been hammered to greatly reduce the amount of bright, shimmering sustain to give them a dry, low-pitched and almost muffled sound. These models are available with single or double row hammered brass jingles and feature a Walnut Brown finish detailed with a hot-branded logo that composes the old school fashion.

• TRADITIONAL BUILD: the Meinl Traditional Wood Tambourine is built with a handheld wood frame that's lightweight and easy to play; plus, it gives the overall sound more warmth and presence
• WHY IT MATTERS: the warm tonal musical depth of wood easily blends with acoustic instruments where tambourines are traditionally played
• DRIVING THE SOUND: hammered solid brass jingles have an extra-dry, warm, vintage sound; their controllable volume supports the mix in acoustic settings and under mics in plugged-in settings
• ZOOM IN: the ergonomic grip gives you a solid handle on the tambourine with a comfortable feel for all skill levels
• OF NOTE: our walnut brown matte finish gives the tambourine good looks while preserving the hardwood frame; this finish is smooth to the touch and made to last
• WHERE TO USE: live, studio, acoustic, orchestral percussion, choral groups, concert band, worship music, school band
• BY THE NUMBERS: 10" frame, 8 jingle pairs, 1 row
• THE TAKEAWAY: this is a solid choice for the warmer tonal quality of a traditional wood tambourine with a fantastic vintage sound that can be used for whatever you need
