Luis Conte Artist Shaker Musical Instrument with Medium Volume NOT MADE IN CHINA For Live or Studio 2-YEAR

About this item

• EASIEST SHAKER TO PLAY: four individual chambers are connected in one shaker for predictable response with silky-smooth sound; these four small shaker chambers are easier to control than one large open chamber
• WHY IT MATTERS: it takes no effort to get consistent rhythm, regardless of skill; there's less space inside where the filling has to travel to make sound, so its response is instant with no lag
• ONE BIG THING: mega-successful percussionist and Meinl artist, Luis Conte, designed this shaker with us; Luis' recording and performance credits include James Taylor, Santana, Phil Collins, Ray Charles, Jackson Browne, Shakira, Madonna, and more
• MEDIUM VERSION: not too loud but carries with pleasant sound; this is the medium volume version with the most applications of all three Luis Conte shakers (SOFT: great for studio, MEDIUM: use almost anywhere, LOUD: best for high volume live shows)
• OF NOTE: made with 100% all-weather synthetic material for crisp tone while being plenty durable; this material produces a clear timbre and is lightweight
• BY THE NUMBERS: this shaker measures 6 7/8" long x 3 1/8" wide, and its volume ranges around 79-81 decibels (a little softer than a strum of an acoustic guitar)
• THE BOTTOM LINE: you can play this shaker anywhere like acoustic shows, studios, in praise bands or campsite sing-alongs, and it doesn't matter what your skill level is; it will do the trick whether you're a drummer or singer with no percussion experience
• 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
• These shakers were designed according to master percussionist Luis Conte’s exact requirements. “My shaker sound is as smooth as silk” is how Luis describes them. The black shaker covers the middle ground between the red and grey versions. It delivers ultra-smooth percussive colors that can blend well and cut at the same time, responding beautifully at any volume level. A little louder than the red shaker, it is perfect to use for both studio and live situations. Any drummer or percussionist will find this instrument extremely useful in their playing. Whether playing a mic'd set or a softer unplugged gig with a cajon, the Luis Conte black shaker dominates in versatility and musicality. Pair with the red and grey models to complete the trio of sounds!
