Meinl Percussion MSM2 Natural Rawhide Maracas
Description
Rawhide Maracas are entirely made by hand and are offered in three different
sizes for a wide sonic range.
Features:
- AUTHENTIC SOUND AND LOOK: these maracas are made with rawhide bulbs to produce expressive sound with mellow, earthy tone; each bulb is hand-tied with durable threading
- WHY IT MATTERS: rawhide maracas occupy the space where synthetic maracas might be too loud or too cutting; get a more complex sound that blends well with acoustic salsa bands, recordings, or smaller drum circles
- ZOOM IN: solid wood handles are curved to fit comfortably in your hands; these handles also provide balance to play precise rhythms and have a great looking natural finish
- ONE TAKEAWAY: these are NOT toys; they're adult-sized, real professional maracas for musicians and hobbyists wanting a nice crisp sound for their music
- WHAT WE'RE HEARING: the attack notes are well-defined and dynamics are easy to control
- BY THE NUMBERS: 7 1/2" long x 2 1/4" wide; sold pairs
- THE BOTTOM LINE: their rich, complex sound has a mellow tone with lower volume than synthetic maracas; plus, the rawhide bulbs are hand made
- THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
