Timbal - product guide

Timbals are available in various sizes. In order to find out which timbal is the right one for you, have a look at a couple of aspects: If you like a strong bass sound, you should choose a timbal with a diameter of at least 13" or 14". The typical-sounding open tones and sharp slaps are also easier to play on a larger diameter. We therefore recommend to choose your timbal as large as possible! A height of 70cm is suitable for players up to 1,68m, if you are taller, you should get a timbal with 90 cm height. Take a look where you like playing the timbal - at the height of your hips or lower.

Weight, sound and appearance is what we´re looking at here. The weight of each instrument differs depending on the manufacturers and the used materials but in general you can say: Aluminium timbals weigh less than wooden timbals and are more suitable for resisting the stronger force effect due to high pitching. The sound of aluminium timbals is sharp and dirty. Wooden timbals have softer overtones and less sustain. Aluminium timbals come with shiny or with brushed surfaces. Wooden timbals are offered by various brands in either natural look or painted in different colours.

Most timbals are equipped with a rounded so-called comfort rim. If your playing technique is advanced, you can also try a simple rounded 4-6 mm steel rim, though this one is not adecuate for hich pitching.

As an answer to the trend of pitching timbals as high as technically possible, some companies have developed a tension system with 16 hooks. The effect is as simple as ingenious: When tuning the timbal up high, the force is spread equally onto the shell, which is how such a high pitching is possible in the first place.

Timbal 14'' x 90 cm - standard 16 tension hook aluminium modellSuper high tuning, clear and smacky slaps, strong and full opens, deep and warm bass tones - the shiny aluminium timbal endures a lot and gives back even more. Timbra is a top brand in the Brazilian scene and have managed to create a total high-end and professional timbal line, now popular and known across the world. In the last couple of years, many axé-pop bands but also quite some blocos have been following the trend of high-pitching their timbals to the limit. Then somebody had the clever idea to spread the higher force impact on the shell by using more tuning hooks. This was the cornerstone for a new trend: the timbal is made of strong hard-wood, on its inside an additional enforcement ring is placed to ensure constant stability. The body is built exactly for its purpose of extreme pitching, which would not be possible with a traditional timbal. The timbal is of great workmanship which you will definitively see, hear and feel.More material (tension hooks, reinforcement elements) naturally mean more weight, which won´t matter anyways if you put the timbal in a stand and play stage gigs. The sound is worth every gramm!This timbal is a jewel, a feast for percussionists and music lovers, it is robust, well manufactured and original Bahian style - it has all it takes to enter new musical areas in Brazilian style-, Jazz-, Pop- or Wordlmusic bands.

The 16 hooks spread the force by pressure equally all over the shell. The 70 cm height is practical for smaller timbaleiros or youngsters.Aluminium timbals sound sharper than wooden timbals.

And if you haven´t managed to make friends with certain European climate zones, at least you don´t need to worry about your instrument any more. The aluminium timba is not picky about rain - and sounds great!A minor downer to be mentioned: More tension hooks unfortunately mean more weight. If you plan to walk many street parades, you might be better off with a lighter modell.The polished aluminium in a treat for the eye, and the chromed comfort rim takes care of your hands.

Timbal 14''x80cm red
14'' x 80 cm timbal with 16 high-tension hooks, aluminium shell80cm timbals are the perfect alternative if you find the 90cm models too big and heavy, without compromising on sound – the difference in sound is so small that even trained ears will hardly notice it.Compact timbal for crisp, high tunings, clear and smacky slaps, powerful open tones, rich basses – this model from the top brand Timbra with 16 hooks can withstand the highest tuning! Many Axé Pop bands, Samba Reggae blocos and also Samba schools in Rio have been following the trend of tuning timbals extremely high for quite some years. In order to better distribute the high forces that occur when tuning high and to avoid overloading the shell, the tension is distributed to the shell by using more hooks. An additional reinforcing ring helps to balance the pressure. The shell is built for tunings that would not be possible with a traditional timbal. Very well made instrument.A true visual standout and a tonal masterpiece, robust and high-quality, crafted in the authentic Bahian style – this timbal fits perfectly into diverse musical worlds, from Samba Reggae blocos and Rio style batucadas to Brazilian, jazz, pop, or world music bands.
