The 14-inch and 15-inch timbales come complete with a stand and have been sculpted to deliver a fierce, penetrating sound character to beautify your performance.

Meinl LC1BRASS: Luis Conte Signature Model

The world-famous Cuban percussionist, Luis Conte has an intimidating CV and has shared the stage with music royalty including Madonna and Phil Collins. His expertise has been honoured in the design of the LC1BRASS timbales and as such, the brass shells have been hand-hammered and the double legged stands ensure that this set can take a lot of abuse and still remains firmly in place. A useful cowbell bracket is fitted between the two timbales so you can easily integrate a cowbell into your set-up and the tripod is fully height-adjustable, making this a superior quality Meinl set a detailed and thoughtful instrument and a definite asset for any demanding percussionist.
