Description
Meinl TP06AB-M 6″ African Brown Rubber Wood Tampeiro is a unique hybrid percussion instrument that blends the sharp attack of a tamborim with the shimmering resonance of pandeiro-style jingles. Designed for samba and other Afro-Brazilian rhythms, this tampeiro offers a fresh sonic palette for percussionists seeking both traditional and innovative sounds.
Materials and Build Quality
Crafted from durable rubber wood and finished in a rich African Brown, the TP06AB-M features a 6-inch diameter frame equipped with three pairs of stainless steel jingles. Its replaceable synthetic head ensures consistent tone and longevity, while the Floatune tuning system allows for precise adjustments without affecting the shell’s integrity.

This combination makes it ideal for samba ensembles, street performances, and studio recordings. Additionally, it can be played using pandeiro techniques, offering versatility for lighter accompaniment and diverse musical contexts.
