As a pro level pandeirista, I rate the Remo choro pandeiro w Skyndeep/Ultratac a solid 3.5. It is a pro level pandeiro, with a very good deep tone coming from the THICK synthetic head. But because the head is thick AND SYNTHETIC, it is very monochromatic-not much, if any, pitch bending or nuance in that regard. The pandeiro has a very nice shell finish, though composite "wood", and is on the HEAVY side of the scale. The platinelas are lightweight brass, very nice light tone-again, fairly monochromatic. The Ultratac is pretty scratchy on the fingers to begin with but then rubs/smears with use and hence becomes smooth/slippery, defeating the purpose of ease of rolls. It's sort of a niche pandeiro and I would say buy it, especially if you dont have access to a good handmade(Bira, Pizzott, etc) pandeiro. GOPE, actually, makes the best, by far, mass produced pandeiro. But the Remo holds it's own pretty well.

Bought this after watching the video, and because it sounded fantastic! In person, easy to play although I would tension it low for best results. Well worth it!

This is the beast pandiero I have ever played. It plays better than even other contemporanea pandieros I have played. You are looking for an awesome, yet cheap pandiero that is 100% quality, this is it. The head is awesome too, feels like real animal hide. The patented jingles are the best jingles I have ever heard as well. If you want a pandiero, I highly recommend this one.

I love how this pandeiro sounds! The jingles on here are very tight, which means an incredibly crisp samba. The head keeps a consistent pitch since it's plastic, but it doesn't sound like plastic (as long as you don't hit it too hard). The only thing I can see wrong with this is the finish on the wood is chipped off in one place already. Other then that, this has become my workhorse pandeiro!

Great pandeiro and worth the price. The jingles sound fantastic and the synthetic head sounds very much like a low pitched natural skin head.The pandeiro is lightweight and easy to play. I would purchase it again if it got damaged or lost.
