Finally, a sturdy universal tambourine clamp that will grip your 8-, 10-, or 12-inch Grover tambourine securely, yet freely enough to allow the frame and jingles to resonate fully!

Designed for pronounced overtone production, our brass tubular triangle beaters will enhance the sound of any triangle! The wall of the 2-1/4-inch long brass alloy head is extra thick with added weight, important to produce a sonorous shimmer immediately upon impact.
