Heat-Treated Silver Tambourine Jingles
The Grover Pro Heat-Treated Silver tambourine resounds with a superb combination of bright, extra dry, and full sonorities. Percussionists who desire an articulate, "crunchy" spread of overtones will appreciate the extra steps Grover takes that crystallize the molecular structure of their German Silver alloy. The T2/HTS-8 Tambourine is perfect for passages that require exaggerated articulation.
Premium White Skin Head
Grover tambourines have always used hand-select, premium white skin heads. While the costs of top grade white heads have risen dramatically over the years, Grover remains committed to producing the world's finest tambourine. It would be easier (and less costly) to use translucent, imported heads, but Grover refuses to compromise any component of their product. The Grover tambourine head will provide many years of trouble-free service.
Captive Pin System
Before Grover Pro, percussionists often complained that their jingle pins would come loose or even fall out completely. Grover developed a system where the hardened steel pins that hold the jingles in place are inserted from the top edge, prior to head mounting. The pins are countersunk, back filled, and permanently housed within the solid shell.
Solid Hardwood Shell
Using renewable hardwoods, Grover painstakingly steam bend every tambourine shell. The raw shells are allowed to dry naturally in a forming mold and are then precision lathe turned. This ensures that every Grover tambourine shell will remain perfectly round throughout a lifetime of use.
Top Orchestral percussionists the world over consider Grover tambourines to be the "Stradivarius" of concert tambourines. Found in the world's finest concert halls, Grover tambourines have been resounding with crystal-clear clarity and full, rich timbres for over 29 years! Meticulous craftsmen painstakingly handcraft each tambourine one at a time.
