Timbal - product guide

Timbals are available in various sizes. In order to find out which timbal is the right one for you, have a look at a couple of aspects: If you like a strong bass sound, you should choose a timbal with a diameter of at least 13" or 14". The typical-sounding open tones and sharp slaps are also easier to play on a larger diameter. We therefore recommend to choose your timbal as large as possible! A height of 70cm is suitable for players up to 1,68m, if you are taller, you should get a timbal with 90 cm height. Take a look where you like playing the timbal - at the height of your hips or lower.

Weight, sound and appearance is what we´re looking at here. The weight of each instrument differs depending on the manufacturers and the used materials but in general you can say: Aluminium timbals weigh less than wooden timbals and are more suitable for resisting the stronger force effect due to high pitching. The sound of aluminium timbals is sharp and dirty. Wooden timbals have softer overtones and less sustain. Aluminium timbals come with shiny or with brushed surfaces. Wooden timbals are offered by various brands in either natural look or painted in different colours.

Most timbals are equipped with a rounded so-called comfort rim. If your playing technique is advanced, you can also try a simple rounded 4-6 mm steel rim, though this one is not adecuate for hich pitching.

As an answer to the trend of pitching timbals as high as technically possible, some companies have developed a tension system with 16 hooks. The effect is as simple as ingenious: When tuning the timbal up high, the force is spread equally onto the shell, which is how such a high pitching is possible in the first place.

Timbal 14'' x 90 cm - aluminium, 16 tension hooks The new trend from Salvador da Bahia: timbals with 16 hooks. Tune your timbal right up to get some awesome slaps and fantastic sounds! The 16 hooks spread the force by pressure equally all over the shell. 90 cm timbals have a larger resonance body and therefore sound more voluminous than 70 cm timbals.Aluminium timbals sound sharper than wooden timbals. If you play many gigs with your bloco, you have an advantage by playing an instrument with a very present sound. And if you live in a humid climate zone, at least you don´t need to worry about your instrument as the aluminium timba is not picky about rain - and sounds something great!A minor downer to be mentioned: More tension hooks, unfortunately, mean more weight. If you plan to walk many street parades, you might be better off with a lighter model.The polished aluminium in a treat for the eye and the chromed comfort rim takes care of your hands.

Timbal aluminium 14''x90cm
Timbal 14'' x 90 cm - aluminium with 16 hooksIn the last couple of years, the Axé pop-bands but also the street blocos have stuck to the trend of constantly pitching up their timbals as high as they possibly could. To keep up with the high technical requirements somebody clever came up with the idea to spread the power that presion produces on the instrument by installing more tension hooks. So now there are timbals with 16 (!!) hooks. Like this it is possible to tune up the nylon heads to a maximum without risking a deshaped drum. The power by pression acting on the shell through the tension hooks is spread on the body equally while the tuning remains at a maximum and the drum stays physically stable.Izzo's 16-hook timbal has fantastcally sharp open tones, whipping slaps and deep and strong bass sounds in the center of the head. The slightly higher weight is easily compensated through the modern sound qualities.An outstanding instrument!

Timbal 14‘’ x 80 cm - aluminium with 16 tension rods - crisp street timbal sound in a compact intermediate sizeThe 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.

Timbal 14'' x 90 cm mit 16 Spannhaken für hohe Spannung, AluminiumkesselHöchste Stimmung, klare und knackige Slaps, kräftige open Tones, satte Bässe - das Modell mit 16 Spannhaken der Top-Marke Timbra hält knackig-hohe Stimmungen aus! Viele Axé-Popbands, Samba Reggae Blocos und auch Sambaschulen in Rio folgen seit einigen Jahren dem Trend, Timbals extrem hoch zu stimmen. Um die hohen Kräfte, die beim Hochstimmen entstehen, besser zu verteilen und den Kessel nicht zu überlasten, wird die Spannung über mehr Spannhaken auf den Kessel verteilt. Ein zusätzlicher Verstärkungsring hilft bei der Kräfteverteilung. Der Korpus ist für die Stimmungen gebaut, die mit einer traditionellen Timbal nicht realisierbar wären. Sehr gute Verarbeitung.Mehr Material, wie Spannhaken und Verstärkungselemente, bedeutet natürlich auch mehr Gewicht. Doch sobald die Timbal auf der Bühne im Ständer steht, spielt das keine Rolle mehr – jeder zusätzliche Gramm ist es für den Sound wert! Mit einem guten Gurt kannst Du die Timbal natürlich auch einfach wie gewohnt tragen.Ein echtes optisches Highlight, ein klangliches Vergnügen, robust und hochwertig verarbeitet, im original Bahian Style – diese Timbal hat seinen Platz in verschiedenen musikalische Welten, von Blocos und Baterias hin zu Brasil-, Jazz-, Pop- oder Weltmusikbands.

Timbal 14''x80cm yellow
14'' x 80 cm timbal with 16 high-tension hooks, aluminium shell80cm timbals are the perfect alternative if you find the 90cm models too big and heavy, without compromising on sound – the difference in sound is so small that even trained ears will hardly notice it.Compact timbal for crisp, high tunings, clear and smacky slaps, powerful open tones, rich basses – this model from the top brand Timbra with 16 hooks can withstand the highest tuning! Many Axé Pop bands, Samba Reggae blocos and also Samba schools in Rio have been following the trend of tuning timbals extremely high for quite some years. In order to better distribute the high forces that occur when tuning high and to avoid overloading the shell, the tension is distributed to the shell by using more hooks. An additional reinforcing ring helps to balance the pressure. The shell is built for tunings that would not be possible with a traditional timbal. Very well made instrument.A true visual standout and a tonal masterpiece, robust and high-quality, crafted in the authentic Bahian style – this timbal fits perfectly into diverse musical worlds, from Samba Reggae blocos and Rio style batucadas to Brazilian, jazz, pop, or world music bands.

Timbal 14''x90cm green
Timbal 14'' x 90 cm mit 16 Spannhaken für hohe Spannung, AluminiumkesselHöchste Stimmung, klare und knackige Slaps, kräftige open Tones, satte Bässe - das Modell mit 16 Spannhaken der Top-Marke Timbra hält knackig-hohe Stimmungen aus! Viele Axé-Popbands, Samba Reggae Blocos und auch Sambaschulen in Rio folgen seit einigen Jahren dem Trend, Timbals extrem hoch zu stimmen. Um die hohen Kräfte, die beim Hochstimmen entstehen, besser zu verteilen und den Kessel nicht zu überlasten, wird die Spannung über mehr Spannhaken auf den Kessel verteilt. Ein zusätzlicher Verstärkungsring hilft bei der Kräfteverteilung. Der Korpus ist für die Stimmungen gebaut, die mit einer traditionellen Timbal nicht realisierbar wären. Sehr gute Verarbeitung.Mehr Material, wie Spannhaken und Verstärkungselemente, bedeutet natürlich auch mehr Gewicht. Doch sobald die Timbal auf der Bühne im Ständer steht, spielt das keine Rolle mehr – jeder zusätzliche Gramm ist es für den Sound wert! Mit einem guten Gurt kannst Du die Timbal natürlich auch einfach wie gewohnt tragen.Ein echtes optisches Highlight, ein klangliches Vergnügen, robust und hochwertig verarbeitet, im original Bahian Style – diese Timbal hat seinen Platz in verschiedenen musikalische Welten, von Blocos und Baterias hin zu Brasil-, Jazz-, Pop- oder Weltmusikbands.
