Meinl Percussion TAH1V-WB 10-Inch Vintage Wood Tambourine with Goat Skin Head and Hammered Brass Jingles, 1 Row

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. The hand selected goat skin head delivers a natural, dry timbre with superb resonance and is without a logo to present a truly vintage look. These models are available with single or double row hammered brass jingles and feature a Walnut Brown finish that composes the old school fashion.

• TRADITIONAL BUILD: lightweight wooden frame with a natural head adds warmth and presence to your sound
• WHY IT MATTERS: wood tone blends easily with acoustic instruments—ideal for traditional tambourine settings
• NATURAL HEAD: pre-tuned natural goatskin head for smooth rolls and accents; color variations are natural—not defects
• HAMMERED SOLID BRASS JINGLES: extra-dry, warm, vintage tone with controllable volume—great for acoustic sets and under mics
• ZOOM IN: the grip is finished with a subtle, heat-branded Meinl logo—a small detail that adds a nice touch
• USES: live shows, church, studio, acoustic music, orchestral percussion, worship groups, school band, singer/songwriter, jam sessions, and more
• SPECS: 10" frame, 8 jingle pairs, 1 row
• BOTTOM LINE: a go-to for warm, vintage sound with the feel of a traditional headed tambourine—versatile enough for any setting
