Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I play hand percussion at my church. I had a hand tambourine with nickel jingles, but wanted something better, and not so harsh. This has really fit the bill. The brass jingles have a very warm sound, you have to hear it to really appreciate it. The other musicians like the sound, especially the drummer and guitarists. The mount works great, I can play the tambourine with a stick or with my hand or snatch it out of the stand if I want to play it like a regular tambourine which is a real plus. You will need to buy another piece of hardware to mount it to a cymbal stand. I bought a Ludwig cowbell mount and that worked fine. Some tom-tom holders will work.
The mutes on the jingles are a good idea, but the design is not fully executed. If you mute the jingles, it will only last for one song and then you will have to adjust them again.
I have seen other reviews on other sites about this tambourine, and they have been mixed, some say its not sturdy enough. Seriously though, if I paid $200.00 for this I would be mad if it didn't last, but for the small price, and the great sound, if it lasts 6 months it will have been a bargain. I have had no issues with it yet, but the frame is plastic and I am regularly hitting it-nothing can last forever.
