Description
Reco Reco Simples black with 3 springs
If you've ever listened to a Pagode session in Rio, you probably know how a typical reco reco sounds: dry and sharp, gritty and piercing – somewhat like a subtle caixa. It's an instrument that strongly defines the overall sound, adds a touch of "white noise," and requires a skilled hand to play.
If the springs sound too metallic for your taste, you can dampen the tone or reverb by covering them with tape. Alternatively, you can gently press on the springs with your thumb to moderate the sound.
A crisp companion for Pagode!

Brand information
Gope
GOPE is a family-run business from the area around São Paulo. Today the company is being run in its third generation by the grand daughter of the firm´s founder.
The brand GOPE has been producing drums and smallpercussion instruments for over 50 years now. When the company was founded, there was already a small workshop in which drumsets were manufactured.
In 1962, the production of the typical Samba instruments began, iniciated by Humberto Rodella, the son of the founder. The company kept growing and after several relocations in São Paulo, GOPE finally found the right place for building a large production hall in Embu Guaçu, a suburb of São Paulo.
Since then GOPE produces in Embu Guaçu everything from the Agogô to the Zabumba, a wide range of percussion instruments, and only recently also various wind instruments.
GOPE has always kept in close touch with the musicians. The ideas and proposals for modifications that they received from many of those contacts, have always had much influence in the development of new instruments and improvement of production.
