Toca T-BSS Shaker Bamboo Small

The Toca Percussion Bamboo Shaker Small (T-BSS) is a compact, ultra-responsive world percussion instrument handcrafted from sustainable natural bamboo. Capped with authentic, all-natural rawhide heads on both ends, this pocket-sized tube shaker delivers a bright, high-frequency rhythmic sizzle. Featuring an innovative pressure-sensitive design, it allows musicians to dynamically warp and modulate the acoustic pitch simply by applying gentle finger pressure to the skin heads while playing. It is an exceptional and highly portable creative accessory for live acoustic sets, studio layering, drum circles, and early music education.
