Izzo ABS 6" Tamborim (various colours)
The shallow tamborim is traditionally hit with a double or triple pronged plastic stick, and plays the distinctive high pitched syncopated rhythms in a samba band. As it's quite small, you’ll probably need more than one to cut through the texture.
These models have 6" white synthetic skin that can be tightened by using the supplied key to adjust the hook tuners. Unlike most larger samba drums which are traditionally made of aluminium, these tamborims are made from ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) a hard rubber also used to make Lego and clarinets among many other things.

- Lightweight hard-wearing ABS body produces clear bright tone
- 6" diameter synthetic head
- Galvanised hardware fitted with 6 fixed nickel tuners
- Authentic Brazilian instrument manufactured in famous Sao Paolo factory
