Product Information

You might be seeking a more specialized tambourine, such as a foot tambourine, or a tambourine that you can attach to a drum kit. Alternatively, you may want to play the instrument by hand, but want an ergonomic grip for maximum comfort. Some buyers may also want advanced features, like the ability to selectively mute zills. The DW 2000 Series Tambourine Foot Pedal ( Sweetwater) is one of the more unique options for this list. It’s essentially the same concept as a strap-on foot tambourine, but it’s a lot more involved in its design. You get a proper bass drum pedal with a tambourine attached, and that tambourine hits a practice pad to make a sound. The padded grip is an excellent feature that makes it feel very comfortable to play. Anyone who’s played constant 16 th notes with a tambourine for multiple songs at a gig will know just how much grip like this helps. The lightweight feel of this tambourine also helps in that area.

Snare Drum Tambourines If you want a tambourine to keep with you in a drum or percussion setup, I’d suggest getting one that doesn’t have a drumhead. It’ll be easier to play, and the hole through the middle makes it easy to latch the tambourine onto different metal rods in your setup. It’s a fantastic piece of gear to consider getting. Just note that it’s quite expensive. It’s highly worth it, though, especially when taking into account that you can use it as a bass drum pedal too.

Furthermore, this foot drum for guitarists provides great sound quality both live and in the studio, creating huge beats when miked up. You could also attach them to your feet while playing drums. Having one on your left leg would give you the same effect that having a hi-hat tambourine would. It may just be a little harder to hear. You get a cushioned grip on the handle, but I found it to be quite hard. It feels fine if you use the tambourine for one or two songs, but your hand will start feeling strained after anything longer than that. One of the areas that foot drums vary the most from one another is their playability. Even if the drum sounds great, you won’t be able to use it to its fullest potential if it doesn’t feel comfortable, so make sure you consider the physical design as much as the sound.

I’ve felt how this makes it both comfortable and very easy to shake the instrument. It’s important to consider the prominent frequencies of the drum; some produce low-end frequencies which complement the guitar’s tone, whereas others, like tambourines, are more midrange and treble-heavy.
