Light-weight waxed wood tamborim, frame height 50 mm
The frame wood is unusually thick (aprox. 12 mm) which is a good base for the head to sit on and which also lies very comfortably in the hand. The wood is light, due to the waxed finish and only 6 tension hooks it almost snuggles into your playing hand. Wood generally has a soft and pleasant touch as well as a warmer sound.

GOPE is a family-run business from the area around São Paulo. Today the company is being run in its third generation by the grand daughter of the firm´s founder.
The brand GOPE has been producing drums and smallpercussion instruments for over 50 years now. When the company was founded, there was already a small workshop in which drumsets were manufactured.
In 1962, the production of the typical Samba instruments began, iniciated by Humberto Rodella, the son of the founder. The company kept growing and after several relocations in São Paulo, GOPE finally found the right place for building a large production hall in Embu Guaçu, a suburb of São Paulo.
Since then GOPE produces in Embu Guaçu everything from the Agogô to the Zabumba, a wide range of percussion instruments, and only recently also various wind instruments.
GOPE has always kept in close touch with the musicians. The ideas and proposals for modifications that they received from many of those contacts, have always had much influence in the development of new instruments and improvement of production.
Perfecto. Tal come escrito en la descripción
Sauber verarbeitetes robustes Tamborim. Das Holz des Tanborims ist lackiert und nicht wie in der Beschreibung gewachst. Die Schlagkante des Holzrahmens ist sehr gleichmässig geformt und plan. Sehr handfreudlich sind die abgerundeten Schraubenköpfe im Innern des Tamborims. Das Tamborim liegt gut in der Hand. Ich mag Holzrahmen wegen dem Klang und der Haptik. Das Standardfell ist mir zu dünn. Das Tamborim lässt sich auch mit etwas dickeren Fell P3 noch gut ausreichend hoch stimmen. - Ich habe festgestellt das sich das auch bei Kalango erworbene Holz Tamborim von O Profissional mit 5 Doppelhaken noch viel leichter hoch stimmen lässt. (10 Haken sind da halt besser als 6.) Der dünnere Holzrahmen bei O Profissional wirkt eleganter. O Professional hat aber leider nicht so schön abgerundete Schrauben im Innern...
Instrument arrived apparently in good conditions but with small cracks on wooden parts and some shape defects on the metal circle.
If it doesn't affect its function you won't have problems.
