Description
The shallow tamborim 6 inch is traditionally hit with a double or triple pronged plastic stick, and plays the distinctive high pitched syncopated rhythms in a samba band. As it's quite small, you’ll probably need more than one to cut through the texture.
These models have 6" white synthetic skin that can be tightened by using the supplied key to adjust the hook tuners. Unlike most larger samba drums which are traditionally made of aluminium, these 6 inch tamborims are made from ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) a hard rubber also used to make Lego and clarinets among many other things.
Manufacturers Izzo have been making top quality instruments in Brazil for more than 60 years. Izzo are particularly well known for their smaller drums - the pandeiros and tamborims - and even these colourful ABS models are made to an extremely high standard.
The ‘Tamborim Head – 6in Diameter, Izzo’ and the ‘Tamborim Beater – 3-Prong, Izzo’ are also available for purchase separately.
