Frequently Asked Questions
What are the drum sizes included in this set?
The set includes a 15-inch and a 16-inch diameter timbale, both with 10-inch deep shells.
Why are the shells made of brass instead of steel?
Brass shells produce warmer, more resonant tones compared to steel, which tends to sound brighter and more cutting. The brass construction on these LP timbales contributes to a fuller, richer sound.
What accessories come with the LP258-B?
The set includes a heavy-duty height-adjustable timbale stand with an anti-rattle sleeve and die-cast gear tilter, a cowbell bracket, timbale sticks, and a tuning wrench.
What tuning system do these timbales use?
They use a traditional tuning system, allowing you to tension the heads with the included tuning wrench.
Are the 10-inch deep shells different from standard timbales?
Yes, the 10-inch depth is deeper than many standard timbale shells. This extra depth enhances bass response and overall volume, which is why LP calls these the "Thunder Timbales."
