Original Rio Samba beater - perfect for hide heads, small hard head, fast rebound for surdo de terceira

The short and hard wood beater for the surdo de terceira in Rio Samba has the perfect size for the exciting voice of the surdo de terceira - are you ready for this handy little devil? Head and handle are made of hard wood, the head is almost unpadded - ideal for a furious rebound and the typical sound on natural heads. Hard beaters with only very little padding get the richest sound out of hide heads. The rhythmic 'ornaments' and syncopations in the set of surdos are played by the terceira, the highest voice. The rhythms can get really fast and are sometimes even played with 2 beaters. This is why you want terceira beaters to be small, with a hard, unpadded head and a short handle - just like the pros in Rio like and play it.

Ideal as:
surdo beater for the surdo de terceira in a Rio style Samba bateria. A short handle for good grip and a hard head for rich sound and lightning speed playing on hide heads.

Please know:
This type of beater should only be used on hide heads (animal skins). Heads made from nylon, korino (nappa), vintage or similar types of surdo heads will suffer dents or might even break.

Ivsom

IVSOM in Brazil
IVSOM is a producer of authentic Samba instruments in Rio de Janeiro. The brand name is a wordplay with his own name which is Ivson, and the Braziliain word for sound which is 'som'. Before becoming self-employed, Ivson absolved a profound formation in the metalworking craft sector. Ivson has been an active sambista for many years. He plays caixa for Mocidade, his wife and business partner Luciana plays the chocalho. Therefore he is very close to his clients and knows exactly, what is in demand. Ivson actively participates in the production of his instruments and makes excellent-quality instruments in a very well organized workshop. Some of Rio´s major Samba schools play his instruments. Quite frecuently Ivson surprises us with new features and innovations. Due to his close contact to the Samba scene, he is often the first to convert buzzing ideas and or incitations into useful inspiration for making new instruments. The IVSOM 'vasado' caixas and repiniques created the trend of instruments without bodies.

IVSOM in Europe
IVSOM instruments have gained high recognition amongst Hardcore Rio Sambistas in Europe within the last couple of years. Especially their good workmanship and the excellent sound of the drums have attracted the percussionist´s attenention over here. The number of IVSOM fans is growing larger each year.

Percussion instrumens
IVSOM drums have a couple of untypical characteristics. For example, the tension rods are flush with the rim. This link is very stable and absolutely free of rattling noises, but a bit more time-consuming in its montage. The surdos have a neat detail concerning the rims of the body where the head rests. The body´s wall is rimmed around a 10 mm flat bar. With this the corpus is a lot more stable than other bodies where wire is used for reinforcement. Like this the drums obtain a smooth and flat rim for ideal head fitting. IVSOM´s reference product is the rocar..
