Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Inspired by traditional shakers used in many world music styles, this model emphasizes a more "natural" feel and more direct projection, thanks to the choice of raw leather and a performance-oriented design.
Who This Drum/Shaker Is For
This shaker is aimed at beginner to advanced percussionists and drummers who want an expressive instrument that is easy to integrate into a set. Ideal for styles where the groove must remain clear and energetic: pop, rock, funk, Latin, Afro, acoustic, worship, and contemporary music.
Features and Innovations
The combination of specially prepared raw leather shells and a new filling material targets an effective balance: a clear attack to "cut through" the mix while retaining body to support the tempo. The wooden handles improve accent control and reduce fatigue during long sessions.
The Sound
The raw leather delivers an organic sonic signature, with a grainy feel and natural projection. Combined with the new filling, it produces a cleaner shaker sound in short movements (ghost notes, doubles, offbeats), while remaining full on wider sweeps, for a solid and lively groove.
