LP Shakere Pro

Bring authentic African and Latin acoustic textures to your rhythm section with the LP Pro Shekere (LP480). Designed by Latin Percussion to replace fragile, traditional natural gourd instruments, this professional shekere features a durable fiberglass body engineered to deliver maximum acoustic volume, crisp bead contact, and long-lasting stage reliability. Hand-strung with high-impact plastic beads arranged on an adjustable netting system, the LP Pro Shekere allows percussionists to customize bead tension for tight, articulate shakes or loose, resonant twists and bottom-palm bass hits. Key Features: Durable Fiberglass Shell: Molded fiberglass body replicates the organic shape and deep resonant chamber of a natural gourd while providing road-ready strength. Hand-Strung Synthetic Beads: Strung with durable plastic beads that deliver bright, cutting high-end response without fraying or breaking over time. Adjustable Bead Tension: Netting design allows you to loosen or tighten the bead wrap to tailor the instrument's decay, response, and feel to your playing style. Deep Bass Response: Thick, reinforced rubber ring around the neck and bottom opening produces a deep, punchy bass note when struck with the palm. Essential World Percussion Instrument: Perfect for Afro-Cuban, Salsa, West African, Reggae, and modern pop/fusion rhythm sections.
