LATIN PERCUSSION CYCLOPS II CONVERTIBLE TAMBOURINE
Latin Percussion (LP) has introduced the redesigned Cyclops II Convertible Tambourine. The classic eye-shape frame of the new Cyclops II Convertible Tambourine is constructed using high-den- sity, specially formulated plastic. It features a double row of 14 steel
jingles for a bright, high-pitched and piercing sound with a patented pinning system to ensure they stay in place. The new Cyclops II Convertible Tambourine has an ergo- nomic, durable and ridged silicone handle. The new, softer handle reduces hand fatigue dur- ing long playing sessions with its excellent vibration-damping properties. {lpmusic.com}
