Lightweight and easy to manipulate, our Spanish Silver Tambourine is perfect for pieces which call for a “rustic†yet professional sounding tambourine.

Our most popular alloy, German Silver resounds with a clear articulation that is bright, sensitive, and powerful. This versatile alloy is the choice of many classical players looking for a focused sparkle that’s not too heavy in sound. The most popular choice for a first tambourine or for all-around playing requirements.
Beryllium Copper jingles were pioneered by Grover Pro in the 1980s. This rare alloy is chosen by players who want a rich texture with a balanced blend of both bright and dark overtones. The lush sound profile of this instrument is preferred by many professional orchestral players.
Grover Pro’s innovative “combo†model was the first tambourine to use fully integrated German Silver and Phosphor Bronze alloys on one tambourine. Each pair of jingles consists of both silver and bronze alloys. The jingles are voiced in alternating patterns, guaranteeing harmonious resonance. A superb “go-to†instrument for those who want both highs and lows in one instrument.
