These Meinl Professional Series Timbales are made from a very fine German B8 cymbal bronze alloy. The drums produce a warm sound with cutting rim shots and enhanced cascara playing. This set includes 14" and 15" timbales with a height-adjustable, tilting, double-braced tripod stand, and an adjustable cowbell holder. The srum shells feature Cuban-style flared out bottom edges and brackets cast from special brass alloy.
