dj gear. ~ Latin Percussion LP426 Latin Percussion LP426 African Shekere The shekere's history begins in Africa where this unique instrument serves as a shaker, a rattle, and a drum. ~ Traditionally made from hollowed gourds wrapped in a lattice of stones, the instrument was, and is, played by shaking or twisting it to get shaker and rattle sounds or by hitting the bottom of the body with the palm of the hand to get drum like bass notes. ~ LP has created a number of different versions of the shekere all with excellent durability and a variety of sounds. ~ Synthetic cord provides a great deal of flexibility allowing the beads to move freely, but controlled. ~ This is great for faster playing and the execution of more complex rhythmic patterns. ~ We also use very different materials for the bodies of our shekeres. ~ Whether metal, plastic, or fiberglass, we have a shekere for every need. ~ Larger than the LP Mini Shekere, the LP African Rattle produces fuller yet delicate sounds. ~ It is great for studio work or traditional ceremonies. ~ Made from the traditional hollowed gourd, it is wrapped in a lattice of nylon cord with colorful plastic beads. ~ It is available in limited quantities due to seasonal growing capabilities. ~ Get Your Latin Percussion LP426 Today! lighting; dj gear; drum sticks; orchesta percussion; electric drums; acoustic drums; percussion; drums; midi; sound modules; groove stations; arrangers; portable keyboards; digital pianos; workstations; synths; electric bass; bass; amps; acoustic guitar; electric guitar; musical instruments;
