Latin Percussion LP812-BN 12" Black Nickel Drum Set Timbale

The Latin Percussion LP812-BN 12" Drum Set Timbale is purpose-built for drummers who want to incorporate the sharp, resonant crack of a timbale into their existing kit without overhauling their setup. Its high carbon-plated steel shell, measuring 12 inches in diameter and 4 inches deep, produces the characteristic bright, cutting attack that timbales are known for, while the drum set-style rims and standard tuning hardware ensure that any kit drummer can tune and maintain it using familiar techniques and widely available heads.

Integration is straightforward thanks to the included heavy-duty chrome mounting bracket, which clamps onto arms or rods ranging from 3/8" to 1/2" in diameter — a range that covers most standard drum hardware. The black nickel finish gives the timbale a polished, professional look that pairs well with chrome or black kit components alike. Whether you are adding Latin-flavored accents to a rock set, expanding your percussion palette for session work, or looking for a distinctive effect drum, the LP812-BN offers a focused timbale voice in a compact, kit-friendly package.
