Latin Percussion LP212R Exotic Wood African Clave

The Latin Percussion LP212R Exotic Wood African Clave is a pair of percussion sticks designed to produce the bright, penetrating tone that defines Afro-Cuban and West African rhythm sections. Made from dense exotic wood with a natural finish, these claves are shaped in the traditional African cylindrical style — without the concave hollow found in Cuban claves — resulting in a sharper, more cutting attack that projects clearly over drums, congas, and other ensemble instruments.

At approximately 30.7 cm in length and weighing about one pound for the pair, the LP212R claves are comfortable to hold and easy to transport to rehearsals, gigs, or studio sessions. Latin Percussion's long-standing reputation in the hand percussion market is reflected in the quality of wood selection and finishing. Whether you are a working percussionist reinforcing clave patterns in a salsa ensemble or a hobbyist exploring Afro-Cuban rhythms, these claves deliver authentic tone with the durability expected from the LP brand.
