Honestly Made large gourd cabassa

About this item

• •Introducing the Percussion Plus Honestly Made large gourd cabasa
• •This colourful cabasa from the Percussion Plus Honestly Made range is made from a gourd which has been dried out and hollowed. Dozens of beads are suspended by a web of string around the outside of the instrument, while the hollow centre amplifies the rattling sound and projects it.
• •As they are made from naturally grown gourds, sizes will vary, especially from season to season. This creates a wonderfully unique instrument, which is always expertly crafted in Ghana using environmentally friendly techniques.
• •These items are musical instruments not toys and there may be small parts on or in some of them. Younger players should use them under supervision. A classic cabasa sound
• •Modern cabasas are made using metal beads wrapped around a metal cylinder. This instrument is made from natural materials, much like the original African cabasa. It produces a gentler, more earthy sound. Play it by rolling it in your palm or between your hand and leg.
