Meinl Black Aluminum Octagonal Shaker, Small

OUR MOST RELAXED GRIP: - The octagonal shape allows for a much looser grip compared to large round shakers. - The shaker naturally rests in your fingertips without requiring a tight squeeze.

WHY IT MATTERS: - Avoid altering tone and volume from excessive grip pressure. - Achieve the desired sound by adjusting pressure at will, not due to necessity.

DRIVING THE SOUND: - Aluminum body produces a crisp middle to high range tone with clear articulation from the straight edges. - Fine-shaped internal filling delivers a balanced sound without being harsh or overly sloshy.

• Ideal for acoustic sets, play under microphones in live louder settings, records, jam sessions, or worship teams.
• Dynamics are versatile—from powerful accents to soft motions for jazz ballads.

OF NOTE: - Aluminum build reduces weight while maintaining durability. - Lightweight and robust instrument suitable for heavy touring and energetic live shows.

SIZE: - Dimensions: 5" L x 2" W (small size). - Available in three sizes: small, medium, and large. - Pitch lowers with increasing size.

THE TAKEAWAY: - Great handling, diverse sound response, and durability make this a highly versatile instrument in a compact design.

THE BIG PICTURE: - Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established in 1951 in Germany. - Expert German designers collaborate closely with builders to deliver the finest quality.
