Meinl Percussion SH88BK Aluminum Octagonal Shaker, Medium, Black
Brand: Meinl Percussion
Octagonal aluminum shell — the flat, angled aluminum surfaces deliver a great mid to high range tone with a highly articulate touch — this medium shaker produces a bright sound that can easily cut through a mix in any setting, live or in the studio
Made to cut — the octagonal shape shell produces more definition than traditional round shape shakers due to the sharp, angular corners the internal filling strikes against — the resulting sound sings with a clear, high pitch
For percussionists and drummers — this shaker can shape virtually any piece of music, whether you are a percussionist or drummer — its response is highly sensitive to your hand movements so your delivery will always come through with fluidity and clarity
Medium size — this Meinl Aluminum Octagonal Shaker measures 7 1/2" long x 2" wide, creating a large enough chamber space for the filling inside to move around freely while being easy to control for accented rhythms
A middle range pitch — this medium length model has a pitch that sits right in-between the three different sized Aluminum Octagonal Shakers available in the Meinl selection
