  • Grover Projection-Plus Tambourine

    The most recorded orchestral tambourine

    Concert percussion · United States

    Grover's Projection-Plus tambourines use a stepped shell and hand-hammered jingles, and they are on a very large share of orchestral recordings made since the 1990s.

  • Rhythm Tech Tambourine

    The crescent shape that fixed the dead spot

    Hand percussion

    Rhythm Tech's crescent tambourine removes the part of a round frame the hand covers anyway, which makes the instrument lighter, easier to hold, and easier to play fast. It is the most copied tambourine design of the last forty years.

  • LP Cyclops Tambourine

    Mountable tambourine with a dry, hard jingle

    Hand percussion

    The Cyclops is built to be hit with a stick and mounted on a stand rather than shaken, with a moulded frame and steel or brass jingles depending on the model.

  • Black Swamp Concert Tambourine

    Tambourines specified by jingle alloy

    Concert percussion · United States

    Black Swamp's tambourines are catalogued by the metal of the jingles — German silver, beryllium copper, chromium, and combinations — because that, more than the shell, determines whether the instrument sits in an orchestral texture or on top of it.

  • Meinl Backbeat Tambourine

    A tambourine that clamps to a hi-hat rod

    Hand percussion

    The Backbeat mounts on the hi-hat pull rod so the tambourine sounds when the hats close, which is how most recorded tambourine parts are actually played on a kit.

  • Rhythm Tech Hat Trick

    Tambourine jingles on the hi-hat

    Hand percussion

    The Hat Trick clamps a set of jingles to a hi-hat so the tambourine part plays itself from the foot, freeing both hands.
