Handmade high-end 10'' pandeiro from Imbuia wood, made in Minas Gerais - selected goatskins with artisan hardware elements

One of our absolute favourites in our range - an affordable hand-made pandeiro with wonderful sound characteristics and lovely finish!
Beautiful artisan pandeiros from São Gonçalo do Rio das Pedras in Minas Gerais, made by Georg Joos, a German carpenter and accomplished pandeiro maker who lives in Brazil and builds these very high quality pandeiros with a great and versatile sound.
We are thrilled about the combination of European quality workmanship and Brazilian understanding of luthier work and passion for authentic sound characteristics that a pandeiro in this range must bring with.
All skins are medium thick and vibrate well, have nice bass qualities as well as a variety of sound characteristics that can be found all across the Brazilian music genre. The pandeiro is esthetically stunning, with a multi-layered frame of dark Imbuia wood and light Pinheiro wood. The jingles are hand-hammered of high-quality brass, each with a cut interleaf, also brass. The hand-made stainless steel flatrim fits perfectly on the skin, which is individually chosen with great care and fitted to the frame. At only 370g, this model is one of our ultra-light pandeiros with exceptional sound characteristics, in particular suitable for Samba Choro and MPB music. Where you hold the pandeiro, there is a narrow, soft-sanded tiny bar which allows for more comfort and grip when playing.

• 3 wood layers
• with tuning key
• with allen key to remove the jingles
• small comfortable to hold handle bar made of soft-sanded and rounded wood
• the head is masked

High-quality pandeiro with medium skin thickness for a bassy sound, versatile use and unbeatable value for money!
