Surdo light 18'' x 50cm - aluminium - HW black
€199.00
Surdo light, practical 50cm intermediate size for all styles 18'' x 50cm, aluminium - black hardwareBe kind to your back - get a lightweight surdo! A half-height surdo 10cm shorter than the 60cm standard surdos - how would you even notice that? Believe us - you will. Sound-wise, there won't be much of difference. For Samba de Enredo fans, a few hundred grams are often a great relief, especially if you are out walking long parades or putting in long rehearsal hours. And maybe the surdo will now fit better in your car or the storage in your rehearsal space Not to mention how just a little less weight will feel when you got your surdo in a bag on your back riding a bike to rehearsal. Besides, you will thank the god of Samba no later than at your next 4-hour carnival parade for not carrying the same 6kg steel sheet model your band mate has.The light line surdos from Gope are built with lightweight hardware components and thin aluminium sheet. Musically speaking, you could also call them compact surdos. Once you have tried them, you will never let them go again. The design principle is quite clear: save weight without sacrificing sound. If you do a lot of parades, dance choreographies or if you simply don't like to carry a heavy surdo, then an intermediate size model is a worthwhile idea.The lugs, the rim and flat rim elements are all of lightweight construction, the tension hoops are slim and light. The shell is welded at the seam, which gives the body a higher vibration component in the sound, as the shell is not interrupted by a folded seam.Tip:Gope surdos come with thin P2 heads from the factory. Especially for larger sizes or if you don't like overtones, we recommend getting a thicker superior head to play on (P3 or any double-layered). Take your time when tuning and breaking the drum in, so that the heads can stretch well and settle on the rim of the shell. This way you will get the best sound out of your surdo.

6“ GP3 tamborim head (P3 - 250 Micron: 0,25mm) - GOPE
GP3 heads are thick, single-layered synthetic heads with a saturated sound and very little overtones. They produce a full, strong and almost matt tone due to their thickness and vibration behaviour - thick heads vibrate less than than thin heads. A special feature of the GP3 heads is the distance between the aluminium rim and and the surface of the head which is larger, compared to other brands, meaning that the head will settle well on your instrument shell straight away.Take some time:The life of a head begins with the moment you put it on your drum for the first time. Each time you tune it, the head will fit itself more comfortably onto the rim of shell being the base for the head. Also in terms of sound, time has an effect on every head. New heads often sound a bit whiny when freshly fitted onto the drum. But after a short break-in time and regular playing, the sound will quickly improve. A new head also will lift the rim higher. Each time you tune your drum, the head will sit itself lower down on the base and the rim can settle.
In short:New head - high rim, whiny sound.After a break-in time - low rim, nice sound.

GP3 heads are thick, single-layered synthetic heads with a saturated sound, medium bass character and very little overtones. They produce a full, strong and almost matt tone due to their thickness and vibration behaviour - thick heads vibrate less than than thin heads. A special feature of the GP3 heads is the distance between the aluminium rim and and the surface of the head which is larger, compared to other brands, meaning that the head will settle well on your instrument shell straight away.
Resonance head or batter head?GP3 heads are ideally used as batter heads. For a resonance head, a thinner option will vibrate stronger and in combination with a GP3 batter head produce a nicer sound.
Give it some time:The life career of a head begins with the moment you put it on your drum for the first time. Each time you tune it, the head will fit itself more comfortably onto the rim of shell being the base for the head. Also in terms of sound, time has an effect on every head. New heads often sound a bit whiny when freshly fitted onto the drum. But after a short break-in time and regular playing, the sound will quickly improve. A new head also will lift the rim higher. Each time you tune your drum, the head will sit itself lower down on the base and the rim can settle.
In short:New head - high rim, whiny sound.After a break-in time - low rim, nice sound.

Head 22'' hydraulic
€39.00
22“ hydraulic head - double ply oil head - batter head
Due to their thickness and sound characteristics, heads with two plies naturally only function as batter heads. This head type is especially popular amongst drummers and sambistas who like fat sounds with a slow attack and a fast decay. The short, almost non-existant sustain is the result of the double layer of heads which don't vibrate easily and therefore provide a high amount of dampening behaviour. Between the two plies there is a special type of oil which influences the sound characteristics of the head even stronger and reduce the sustain to an absolute minimum. Thicker, double ply heads are also extremely durable.
This head will be interesting for you if you like the following sound characteristics:- warm, deep, punchy and short sounds- sustain: very little to none- overtones reduced to a minimum- quick decay (the dropout of the tone from its maximum to 0)- with surdo heads: nice and warm but not too resounding bass tones, short, fat and warm- slow attack, doesn't sound too sharp

Replacement hide head 6'' with aluminium rim for Samba de Mesa tamborim
Information about mounting hide heads:Natural heads tend to twist when they are unmounted due to different air humidity and temperature. When you are ready to put the head on your instrument and see that it is twisted, moisten (not soak!) the head carefully with a kitchen sponge, then put it on a flat surface and push the drum shell in the rim from above. Put your drum loosely back together and wait until the head is dry before putting any tension on it. Let it dry slowly in the air (best overnight), don't use heaters, hairdryers and don't leave it in the sun as it will make the head brittle and prone to tear.
Information for hide heads on aluminium rims:Natural heads tend to twist when unmounted, especially with when temperature and humidity changes. This can happen as well with heads on wood rims as with skins in aluminium rims. The aluminium hoops are grouted in a way that leaves a small open joint gap. This is not a defect nor a broken seam, but a tiny tolerance which is there on purpose so that the head can expand or tighten without damaging the hoop or the head when air moisture changes. If you have received a twisted head with an open gap on the aluminium rim, then that is quite normal and with only a few steps the head will easily fit on your instrument shell: Slightly moisten the head, wait a couple of minutes, then fit it on the shell and put your instrument back together loosely. Only put tension on the head once it has dried completely and in a natural way; this will usually take overnight. As soon as there is tension on the head, wrinkles and the twist will disappear and the head will easily adjust to the shape of the instrument shell. If you have any questions about mounting a head, please contact us.
Purchasing replacement heads:If you are buying a replacement head for your instrument, we advise that you get a head from the same brand as your instrument as they should fit without any trouble. If you buy a head from a different brand, you might find that the fit slightly differs or even doesn't go on the shell well or at all. Please understand that we cannot offer warranty in this case.

Head 14'' Super Nylon
€29.60
Super Nylon high-tec head 14‘’ laminated with Dupont Nomex fibreMedium-thick head made of Dupont Nomex fibre for extra dry, crisp sounds and few overtones. Haptically, the head can be described as somewhere between a coated and a glass fibre head. The surface is slightly textured and feels a bit like paper, which filters unwanted vibrations and takes out overtones. The skin is thin enough to convey nice mids and is suitable for the usual Brazilian street Samba and Samba Reggae as well as for modern styles and funky grooves. Nomex paper from Dupont is a heat-resistant, flame-retardant material used in high-performance applications such as electrical insulation and protective clothing.
Surdo Light 18''x40cm
€239.00*
Surdo light Dobra 18''x40cm aluminium HW chromed
Our lightest Samba Reggae surdos from Gope!Ultra-short shell, crispy, authentic Bahia sound for fat bass sound on street parades or stage gigs. Gope welds its seams instead of folding or riveting them, so the sound can swing even better and unfold more shell-based sound. Lightweight components make this surdo an absolute favourite - minimal weight with high stability and big time bass. The compact Surdo is especially suitable for surdo players who have overhead choreographies, who lift up the surdo with one hand and do a lot of show dancing. But also those who don't want to carry heavy - young samba players or candidates with back problems - will love this model. Once hooked, you'll never want to play a different surdo.The Light line doesn't have quite as much volume as models with thick and heavy shells, but here the emphasis is clearly on the 'extra light'. With thick heads you can add a lot of quality to the Light line surdos. The construction principle is simple: save weight, big sound and a stable, versatile street and stage instrument.This model has a chromed rim.
Our tip for big bass:Replace the ex-factory drumhead with a thicker one, e.g. a GP3, a hydraulic head, a double-ply or an inverted korino head. Thicker skins vibrate less, thicken the attack and bring more sound mass into mix.For the high voices the thin ex-factory head might be just the right head. It can be tuned to exactly the right level with partial masking, damper gel pads or foam rings.
Atabaque Rum 11''x120cm with stand
€398.00
Atabaque 120 cm - Rum (biggest size, lowest voice) with wood standAtabaques are commonly found in Candomblé - the ritual drumming of Brazil's heritage. The traditional Brazilian hand drums are usually played in a set of three voices: Lê , Rumpi , Rum. But also in Capoeira or in Samba de Roda one can find atabaques. In the set, this atabaque is a Rum, the largest size used for the lowest voice.The atabaques are solidly built and can be used for many different music styles. A simple wooden shell and carefully picked skins in the right strength help feature the atabaque's typical warm and open sound.A simple wooden stand comes with the instrument.Dimensions:Instrument height without stand: approx. 127cmInstrument height with stand: approx. 139cm_____Resetting Atabaque Rings – A Quick GuideTemperature and humidity fluctuations (e.g., indoor heating in winter) can cause the wood to shrink, loosening the rings on your atabaque – this is normal and easy to fix.How to reset the rings:✔ Tools: A flat old file or a piece of hard wood (e.g., oak) and a small hammer.✔ Technique: Work from top to bottom (from the smaller towards the larger diameter), positioning the tool at a fairly vertical angle, almost parallel to the atabaque’s body, to avoid damage. Tap the ring evenly all around. Do not force or tilt too much – the ring should remain parallel to the ground. The better the contact with the body, the more stable the tension.Why is this necessary?Resetting rings is a traditional technique from barrel-making – just like old beer or wine barrels, where metal rings need to be tapped back into place when the wood dries.Gaps between the staves?If the Atabaque shrinks and the rings come loose, tension is lost, causing gaps between the staves. Resetting the rings restores stability and keeps the body together.
Tan Tan cónico 12''x65cm Selfie red
€195.01
Tan Tan - bass hand drum with effect varnish #Selfie Cherry
Sitting on the beach or in the park, playing samba. There's no better way, is there? Aluminium instruments are easy to handle and sound a bit sharper than wooden instruments. Hide heads (animal skins) are considered authentic in Brazil, is technically a bit more demanding to play than korino but sounds beautiful and - to be honest: it is quite stylish! The tan tan is the lowest bass drum in Samba de Mesa and replaces the surdo. This model has a compact 12'' diameter with a slightly conical shell and a long resonance body. Gope is known for its lightweight construction, their instruments are pretty handy when you're on the road a lot or on stages. The shell is rather thin-walled, the sound is not quite as heavy as with 14'' instruments. We think it's a fancy little thing!

From jam sessions to professional Pagode performances - this rebolo looks stunning on stage and has a lot to offer in terms of sound! 10'' is more of a compact size for rebolos, hide heads are particularly popular in Brazil; they require a little more technical know-how than the soft korino heads, but the sound result will reward you.

Rebolo 12'' x 45 cm, conical, white - Gope
From jam sessions to professional Pagode performances - a rebolo is the heart and soul of any session ensemble. Whether played virtuously in combination with a tan tan or providing the pulse as the main bass line, the small bass drum can be used for a variety of musical purposes. Alumimium shells are easy to care for and have a slightly sharper sound, natural skins are particularly popular in Brazil; they require a little more technical know-how than the soft korino heads, but sound all the more authentic for it.

Alumimiumkessel sind Pflegeleicht und haben einen etwas schärferen Klang, Naturfelle werden in Brasilien besonders gerne gespielt; sie erfordern etwas mehr technisches Know-how als die weichen Korinofelle, klingen dafür aber umso authentischer.Anmerkung: Diese Größe passt leider nicht in unsere Rebolo Taschen.

Surdo Médio 22''x50cm
€253.01*
Surdo light, practical 50cm intermediate size for all styles 22'' x 50cm, aluminium - black hardwareBe kind to your back - get a lightweight surdo! A half-height surdo 10cm shorter than the 60cm standard surdos - how would you even notice that? Believe us - you will. Sound-wise, there won't be much of difference. For Samba de Enredo fans, a few hundred grams are often a great relief, especially if you are out walking long parades or putting in long rehearsal hours. And maybe the surdo will now fit better in your car or the storage in your rehearsal space Not to mention how just a little less weight will feel when you got your surdo in a bag on your back riding a bike to rehearsal. Besides, you will thank the god of Samba no later than at your next 4-hour carnival parade for not carrying the same 6kg steel sheet model your band mate has.
The light line surdos from Gope are built with lightweight hardware components and thin aluminium sheet. Musically speaking, you could also call them compact surdos. Once you have tried them, you will never let them go again. The design principle is quite clear: save weight without sacrificing sound. If you do a lot of parades, dance choreographies or if you simply don't like to carry a heavy surdo, then an intermediate size model is a worthwhile idea.
The lugs, the rim and flat rim elements are all of lightweight construction, the tension hoops are slim and light. The shell is welded at the seam, which gives the body a higher vibration component in the sound, as the shell is not interrupted by a folded seam.
Tip:Gope surdos come with thin P2 heads from the factory. Especially for larger sizes or if you don't like overtones, we recommend getting a thicker superior head to play on (P3 or any double-layered). Take your time when tuning and breaking the drum in, so that the heads can stretch well and settle on the rim of the shell. This way you will get the best sound out of your surdo.

Hide head Cuica 06'' aluminium rim
€12.80
6'' natural skin – cuica replacement hide head with bamboo stick in aluminum rim by Gope6'' cuica head with pre-installed bamboo stick, ready to play!Tips for cuica skins:Natural hides are delicate. Loosen them after playing and before storing. Keep them at room temperature, away from moisture, heaters, or direct sunlight. Heat and dryness can make them brittle and cause tearing. Let damp skins dry completely (overnight works best) before tuning, and avoid drying with heaters or in the sun.Pro tip:Thick bamboo sticks don’t vibrate well. Sand them down for a thinner, smoother stick to get better sound. Pre-sand spares so you’re always ready!Note on aluminum rings:Warping from temperature or humidity is normal. Lightly moisten a warped head, mount it loosely, and let it air-dry fully before tensioning. Wrinkles will smooth out as the ring adjusts to the drum.Questions? Just ask us!

Repique de Anel 12''x30cm aluminium
€127.00*
Repique de Anel 12" – aluminum shell with natural skins, black hardware, matte brushed finish"Anel" means ring – and while no ring is included, this instrument is traditionally played with one. The repique de anel is a hand drum often heard in Pagode, featuring natural skins on both sides, allowing it to be played from either side.When played with a ring, it produces counter rhythms that add a unique texture to the sound. Some percussionists also stick coins or small metal pieces loosely onto the aluminum shell with a piece of tape. Tapping on them with the non-dominant hand creates a distinctive, layered soundscape.Of course, the repique de anel can also be played like a classic repique de mão, with the natural skins delivering a warm, full-bodied tone. With its black hardware and matte brushed finish, it’s as striking visually as it is sonically.
