Surdo Axé 24'' x 43 cm - short surdo for Samba Reggae and Bahia styles
Short 24'' surdo with XXL bass for Samba Reggae / Afro Samba fans!
Samba Reggae, big bass, good swing and lots of choreography is your thing, you are the heartbeat of your bloco and love the pounding street sound of the Bahia styles?
In the last couple of years, the short surdos have become more and more popular in Brazil and in Europe. You used to see them only in a few of Salvador´s blocos like e.g. Timbalada or Ilê Aiyê. Being shorter than other surdo types, they produce the typical dry Samba Reggae and Afro Samba sounds with short sustain and of course, they also are lighter.
The Light series by Contemporanea is a slightly lighter version compared to their Pro series. The shell material is thinner, the stability of the rims is achieved by creasing the metal, additional reinforcements are reduced or left out in order to save weight. A simple and straight forward instrument with good sound and big bass - get out your muscle shirt for this 24'' baby!
Typical Contemporanea Light: The shell is made of brushed aluminium, the hardware is painted.
Standard ex-fabric: nylon heads
