This quality Afuche Cabasa is an excellent addition to a percussion pack, you will love the sound it produces. It is crisp, and light, and depending on how you play it the sound can be very loud and expressive. To play the instrument you can rub the beads on your hand fast or you can shake it to get a great scratching sound. There are ribs around the shaker with the beads wrapped around it allowing the sound to be achieved.
The difference between a cabasa and the Afuche Cabasa is that the regular cabasa is traditionally handmade in Africa typically from natural produce like gourds whereas the Afuche cabasa is more durable as it made using modern techniques and is constructed with a steel ball chain wrapped around a cylinder.
