Timbal 14‘’ x 80 cm - aluminium with 16 tension rods - crisp street timbal sound in a compact intermediate size
The 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.
Customer reviews for "Timbal aluminium 14''x80cm"
"Izzo"
High-quality instruments for Rio Samba and Samba Reggae, which are especially popular and proven in schools! For quite some years now, instrument builder IZZO remains among the top brands of Brazilian Samba percussios. It has been a while that IZZO instruments from São Paulo were rather simple percussion instruments which were very popular in Brazil due to their good price range.
Then they began to constantly increase their standard of Samba instruments until they reached a top-class level. By now they have become a serious manufacturer with a wide range of very well manufactured instruments which are known throughout the international market.
IZZO achieved a special coup when in 2010 they lanced their top brand TIMBRA. TIMBRA instruments were developed in close cooperation with renowned percussionists. The objective was to create convincing series of instruments with great sound, optically outstanding and adecuate for stage gigs. Especially the timbals, made of either wood or aluminium, set new standards with their 16 tuning hooks, extraordinary design and spectacular sound.
Today IZZO is completely in the league of the old-established traditional brands of Samba instruments.
