Product Details
PATENTED SOUND PORT DESIGN: circular sound ports in the body of the cabasa give you more volume, projection, and an extra-crisp sound; made for live and studio
WHY IT MATTERS: it takes less effort to be heard, so you're more relaxed while playing and can lock-in with the groove; plus, the sound carries easily to cut through the mix even when not mic'ed
HOW IT WORKS: rub, shake, spin, or tap the stainless steel beaded chain with your hand to get different sounds; behind the chain is a stainless steel ribbed cylinder that produces the classic raspy cabasa effect
OF NOTE: the chains aren't too lose or too tight so the beads move easily; their fluid motion allows you to be more expressive and accurate because you're not dealing with too much friction
ZOOM IN: the body (or chamber) is made of durable hardwood for warm tone, and the handle is shaped for comfort and control
BY THE NUMBERS: this small size version measures 7 1/8" L x 3 1/8" W and weighs 0.6 lbs; the pitch gets higher as size gets smaller and lower as you go up in size
THE BOTTOM LINE: this is a professional, versatile, and controllable cabasa that works in any venue or studio; it's easy to get a great sound and is a fantastic addition to your percussion collection
THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
