GOPE - a burst of color and rhythm

Fresh from Brazil: A Burst of Color and Rhythm with the Latest GOPE Delivery

The wait is over - our latest delivery from GOPE has just landed, and it’s packed with vibrant colors and an incredible selection of instruments! From shimmering timbals to deep, resonant surdos, and from bright tamborins to crisp caixas, this shipment has everything to fuel your next samba session. There’s even a fresh batch of agogôs, repiniques, and the long-awaited rebolos. Let’s dive into what makes this delivery so exciting.

Spotlight on the 11" rebolo: the heartbeat of Pagode

Among the highlights of this shipment are the new 11'' rebolos - a size that’s making waves in Rio de Janeiro as the new go-to for Pagode ensembles. The rebolos we just received measure 11'' in diameter and 55 cm in height, feature a conical design and a natural hide head. We have 6 standard colours in our shop that may occasionally change, from the Linha Brasil to the metallic Selfie tones and also some funky colours like orange, greens, turquoise and a sleek stylish black.

Why is the 11" rebolo so special?

The 11" rebolo has likely gained popularity because it strikes the perfect balance: delivering enough bass to carry the heartbeat of Pagode while offering a distinct contrast to the tan tan, all in a compact, handy size. It is, of course, the heart and soul of every Pagode. This small bass drum, often paired with the larger, lower-tuned tan tan, creates the rhythmic foundation that keeps the groove alive. But the rebolo isn’t just limited to Pagode. Its versatility makes it perfect for everything from casual jam sessions to professional Samba de Mesa performances.

The natural hide head adds an authentic Brazilian touch, delivering a warm, deep bass that’s hard to replicate with synthetic skins. While natural skins demand a bit more finesse to play, the payoff is worth it: an unmistakably rich, organic tone that’s a favorite among Brazilian musicians.

We’re as excited as you are to get these rebolos online! As soon as they’re back from the photo studio, you’ll find them ready to order on our website.

A little about GOPE: tradition meets innovation

GOPE is a family-run company with over 50 years of tradition in crafting percussion instruments. The company started in São Paulo, initially producing drum sets before focusing on Samba instruments in 1962 under the direction of Humberto Rodella, the founder’s son. Over the years, GOPE expanded and relocated to a large production facility in Embu Guaçu, where they now manufacture a wide range of percussion instruments, from agogôs to zabumbas. GOPE has always maintained close relationships with sambistas and musicians, incorporating their feedback into the development and refinement of its instruments.

Gope - a kaleidoscope of instruments

This latest shipment showcases GOPE’s commitment to variety and craftsmanship. Whether you’re drawn to the sharp, cutting tones of a caixa, the deep resonance of a surdo, or the playful brightness of a tamborim, there’s something for every sambista in this collection. GOPE instruments truly stand out in the world of Samba percussion. Their vibrant colors aren’t just for show - most of them are powder-coated, making them highly durable and giving them a premium finish. But there’s more! GOPE welds all the seams of their drum shells, which enhances the shell’s ability to vibrate freely, resulting in that signature tone and fuller sustain. And let’s not forget their lightweight construction, which has made their surdos legendary. Once you play a GOPE surdo, it’s hard to imagine going back to anything else!

DEAL | Timbal aluminium 14''x80cm
Timbal 14‘’ x 80 cm - aluminium with 16 tension rods - crisp street timbal sound in a compact intermediate sizeThe perfect intermediate size between the 90cm standard timbal and the short 70cm timbal.This 80cm timbal is the ideal size for you if you are looking for a compact timbal without having to compromise on sound. The diameter is 14‘’, the same as the taller 90cm timbals, only the shell is slightly shorter. In contrast to wooden timbals, aluminium always sounds a little sharper and punchier. Timbals with 16 tension rods can be tuned really high, the high number of hooks distribute the forces evenly across the shell. Rich and crisp slaps, powerful open tones and full basses characterise this compact instrument. With an aluminium shell, you don't have to worry about rainy weather, even during a carnival parade.Many Axé pop bands as well as traditional blocos have been following the trend of tuning timbals extremely high for years now. More tension hooks transfer the high forces generated when pitching the instrument very high to the shell. This invention paved the way for this trend: The shell is built for extremely high tunings that could not be reached with a more traditional timbal.More material (tension hooks, reinforcing elements) naturally also adds weight, but at 80cm you save a few grams thanks to the shorter shell.Crisp, high sound, robust and stylish to play in a variety of styles.

Timbal 14''x90cm green
Timbal 14'' x 90 cm mit 16 Spannhaken für hohe Spannung, AluminiumkesselHöchste Stimmung, klare und knackige Slaps, kräftige open Tones, satte Bässe - das Modell mit 16 Spannhaken der Top-Marke Timbra hält knackig-hohe Stimmungen aus! Viele Axé-Popbands, Samba Reggae Blocos und auch Sambaschulen in Rio folgen seit einigen Jahren dem Trend, Timbals extrem hoch zu stimmen. Um die hohen Kräfte, die beim Hochstimmen entstehen, besser zu verteilen und den Kessel nicht zu überlasten, wird die Spannung über mehr Spannhaken auf den Kessel verteilt. Ein zusätzlicher Verstärkungsring hilft bei der Kräfteverteilung. Der Korpus ist für die Stimmungen gebaut, die mit einer traditionellen Timbal nicht realisierbar wären. Sehr gute Verarbeitung.Mehr Material, wie Spannhaken und Verstärkungselemente, bedeutet natürlich auch mehr Gewicht. Doch sobald die Timbal auf der Bühne im Ständer steht, spielt das keine Rolle mehr – jeder zusätzliche Gramm ist es für den Sound wert! Mit einem guten Gurt kannst Du die Timbal natürlich auch einfach wie gewohnt tragen.Ein echtes optisches Highlight, ein klangliches Vergnügen, robust und hochwertig verarbeitet, im original Bahian Style – diese Timbal hat seinen Platz in verschiedenen musikalische Welten, von Blocos und Baterias hin zu Brasil-, Jazz-, Pop- oder Weltmusikbands.

And if you haven´t managed to make friends with certain European climate zones, at least you don´t need to worry about your instrument any more. The aluminium timba is not picky about rain - and sounds great!A minor downer to be mentioned: More tension hooks unfortunately mean more weight. If you plan to walk many street parades, you might be better off with a lighter modell.The polished aluminium in a treat for the eye, and the chromed comfort rim takes care of your hands.
