HANDS-FREE BEATS: the Meinl Foot Tambourine slips over your shoe so you can tap your foot to accent beats; it lets you easily add percussion while your hands are busy playing other instruments

WHY IT MATTERS: layering your music with new sounds gives your performance movement, especially if you're playing solo acoustic gigs on guitar or backing a band on a cajon

DRIVING THE SOUND: the tambourine effect comes from its four pairs of stainless steel jingles that have medium-bright tone and controllable volume; these are the same jingles used on some of our professional tambourines

OF NOTE: you don't need exaggerated foot movements to get a solid sound; the jingles face forward to easily activate so you can play with comfort and accuracy

UNIVERSAL FIT: wear over shoes, boots, or heels; the elastic band slips on easily with a secure fit so it doesn't slide off or move out of place during the middle of your song

BY THE NUMBERS: the Siam oak body measures 4" L x 2 3/4" W x 1 1/2" H, and the whole instrument weighs 3 ounces

THE BOTTOM LINE: it's easy for anyone to play, and you don't need any prior skill; recommended for any musician wanting to add percussion to their acoustic set

THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
