Surdo Axé 22'' x 40 cm - aluminium, gold hardware
Samba Reggae / Afro Samba surdo with short shell and big time bass!
Short surdos have their origin in Bahia, where a lot of choreography happens during the rehearsals and performances and surdos are lifted high above the head as a show effect. A shorter shell also saves some weight and is easier to handle and store. But mainly, they have a super-short sustain which is the authentic style in the Bahian rhythms.
Customer reviews for "Surdo Axé 22''x40cm custom alu - golden HW"
"Timbra"
In 2010, IZZO managed to pull off a remarkable milestone by lancing their high-end show brand TIMBRA TOP PERCUSSION.
All TIMBRA Samba instruments have been developed in close cooperation with renowned percussionists. The objective was to create convincing series of instruments with great sound, optically outstanding and adecuate for stage gigs. Especially the timbals, made of either wood or aluminium, set new standards with their 16 tuning hooks, extraordinary design and spectacular sound.
TIMBRA builds all kinds of Samba instruments from wood and aluminium surdos, cuicas, rebolos to tantans and timbals. A special eye-catcher was one of the brand's first lines - the Carlinhos Brown Signature Series with timbals and bacurinhas with elaborate colour prints and designs on vinyls. High-quality workmanship, authentic sounds and flashy designs are still the main trademarks of TIMBRA.
