type: Product
description: Bring the unmistakable, high-register "singing" voice of samba to your ensemble. Crafted in São Paulo, Brazil, by IZZO Instrumentos Musicais, this 8" Stainless Steel Cuíca is designed for crisp pitch control, high-register articulation, and fast melodic bends. The 8-inch shell hits the sweet spot for players who want a responsive, nimble cuíca that speaks clearly through loud percussion sections. Featuring a high-polish stainless steel body paired with an authentic, pre-mounted goat skin head, this instrument offers the ideal elasticity needed to execute precise tonal changes, subtle squeaks, and classic samba vocalizations. Key Features High-Pitch Articulation: 8-inch diameter provides tight pitch response and clear, vocal-like high register bends. Polished Stainless Steel Body: Corrosion-resistant, durable metal shell engineered for sleek aesthetics and road reliability. Authentic Goat Skin Head: Natural hide construction ensures superior stick-head vibration, elasticity, and classic acoustic resonance. The stick is mounted in the traditional way of tying it on from the outside rather than the "Made in China" plastic button style. Precision Tuning Hardware: Heavy-duty tension rods allow for fine-tuned pitch adjustments across the skin. São Paulo Craftsmanship: Genuine Brazilian manufacturing built for traditional bateria and pagode playing.
