Latin Percussion ES-5 Salsa Timbale Bell Silver

The Latin Percussion ES-5 Salsa Timbale Bell is a purpose-built percussion instrument designed to deliver the signature bright, cutting bell sound that defines salsa music. At 7.5 inches, this mountable bell produces a focused, penetrating tone that projects through horn sections, congas, and full rhythm sections without getting lost in the mix. The brushed steel construction gives the bell its characteristic sharp attack and sustain, while also providing the durability needed to handle night after night of energetic live performance.

As part of Latin Percussion's professional lineup, the ES-5 reflects decades of expertise in crafting instruments for Latin music. Made in the USA, it meets the quality standards that working percussionists depend on for consistent sound and reliable performance. The bell mounts easily onto standard percussion hardware, making it a straightforward addition to any timbale setup or multi-percussion rig. Whether you are laying down cascara patterns, playing the mambo bell part, or accenting transitions in a live salsa arrangement, the ES-5 provides the tonal clarity and projection that the music demands.
