Sobre este artículo

  • 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

Love it

I use this almost every day to add to the music I'm listening to and singing in the car. It goes with so many songs. The sound is great. Absolutely worth the money. Size is perfect, fits in my hand well and is easy to store. Has lasted a long time and seems like it'll keep lasting. Feels cheap because it's so light, but that's definitely not a bad thing. Works really well. Amazing purchase. Read more

Love the Meinl Shaker - Excellent product and sounds great!

We have a three piece band and this is exactly what we needed to add a little spice and rhythm to the mix. The sound cuts right through but it's not overpowering and works perfectly with us. I was on the fence about spending a little extra for the double shaker or whether to go with a single and I'm so glad I chose the double. If you're band is lacking a little something extra and you want to add a lot without having to spend a large amount of money, go with this. It did the trick and we couldn't been happier. Would definitely purchase again if needed! Read more

Comfortable, Sounds Great, Long Lasting, What's to Not Like...

I've been using one of these for many years, and when it finally began leaking the beads, I bought another. It's perfect for keeping a groove, especially when you don't need a very loud sound. It is very comfortable and lightweight to use, and unlike the other brand with the rubber bands holding the two parts together, I never have to worry about it twisting or coming apart! I don't have any use for splitting it up and using it as two separate pieces, if I wanted a pair of maracas, I'd buy them, but this is a shaker, and nice one... Read more

GREAT! but not very loud

This is a good shaker, VERY light. That goes for weight and for sound. I was expecting, and hoping, for it to be louder. I might just get another one to stack on top to increase sound. Read more
