Descrizione
A warm surdo of top quality: the Meinl SU18AB-M. This surdo has an 18-inch diameter and a chain depth of 22 inches. This size surdo is widely used in the Brazilian province of Bahia and is unprecedentedly popular in samba-reggae music. Meinl has composed the shell from 6 layers of high-quality hardwood. The result is a warm-sounding surdo with a full sound.
Meinl Bahia surdo: universally applicable
You can use this surdo in samba parades but also in a fixed surdo set-up. The shallow bowl makes it easy to take this surdo with you. The advantage of a Bahia surdo is that you can carry it lower, giving you more freedom to swing. Slight damping of the sheet provides a dull but rich surdo sound. Meinl has recessed the tensioning bolts so you won't be bothered by this while playing. Set the beat of the music on this hardwood surdo from top manufacturer Meinl.
