About this product
Black is the default color of the working musician's toolkit for good reason. It is the color that disappears on a dark stage, that reads as professional in photographs, that matches every other piece of gear without requiring coordination, and that communicates a kind of focused seriousness that brighter or more decorative colors do not quite convey in the same way. For the percussionist who uses a tambourine as a regular part of their professional or semi-professional work, rather than as an occasional accessory, the LPA190's black frame is not simply a color preference: it is a practical and deliberate choice that reflects how the instrument will actually be used. The LPA190 is the 10-inch black version of the LP Aspire tambourine, and the 10-inch size is the standard professional tambourine format. This is the size that appears in gospel choirs, in rock and pop bands, in Latin ensembles, in studio sessions, and in music classrooms around the world, because 10 inches represents the balance point between enough jingle surface area to produce a full, rich, and projecting sound and a frame size that is still light and compact enough to be played expressively without fatigue for extended periods. A smaller tambourine sacrifices volume and tonal richness; a larger one becomes physically challenging to play for extended periods without tiring the wrist and forearm. The 10-inch format eliminates both of those compromises. The Aspire Series represents Latin Percussion's commitment to making genuinely capable instruments accessible to musicians who do not have a professional instrument budget but who need an instrument that performs reliably in real musical contexts. The LPA190 is not a toy tambourine or a classroom prop: it is a properly constructed percussion instrument that produces the clean, classic tambourine tone that audiences and bandmates recognize and respond to. The formed grip is a practical detail that separates the LPA190 from simpler tambourines: the ergonomic shaping allows the frame to sit securely and comfortably in the hand rather than requiring the player to grip a flat-edged rim, which becomes fatiguing during longer playing passages. At $29.99, the LPA190 offers genuine LP Aspire quality in the most versatile and classically useful tambourine color for any musician who takes their sound seriously. Backed by Latin Percussion, the LPA190 is the working tambourine for players who want their gear to be as focused as their playing.

Seven Steel Jingle Pairs

The Latin Percussion CP390 is a 10-inch headless double row tambourine that sits at the very top of the CP by Latin Percussion family as the most tonally powerful and acoustically commanding instrument in the entire lineup. It achieves this distinction by combining two design philosophies that each independently produce exceptional results, the full-size acoustic projection of a 10-inch wood frame and the completely unfiltered jingle clarity of a headless construction, and fusing them with the volume-multiplying effect of a double row jingle configuration. The result is a tambourine that is louder, brighter, more cutting, and more present than anything else in the CP range. For players who need the absolute maximum jingle intensity from a hand percussion instrument, the CP390 is the definitive answer and the clear endpoint of the CP line's progression from beginner to performance-grade instrument. To understand what makes the CP390 so sonically distinct, it helps to consider what each of its three defining features contributes individually and then collectively. The 10-inch solid wood frame provides the largest resonating body in the CP family, giving every jingle vibration more surface area and internal volume to amplify and project outward. The headless construction removes any drumhead entirely, eliminating acoustic dampening and allowing the steel jingles to resonate with complete freedom and transparency. The double row configuration then doubles the total jingle surface area, with two complete rows of eight steel jingle sets mounted around the full circumference of the frame, for a total of sixteen jingle sets producing sound simultaneously with every shake and strike. When these three elements operate together as they do in the CP390, the combined acoustic effect is genuinely transformative. The instrument does not merely produce a louder version of what a single row or headed tambourine delivers. It produces a tone that is qualitatively different in character, denser, more layered, and more penetrating, a shimmer that fills large spaces with a presence and authority that sets the CP390 apart from every other instrument in its category. Whether performing on a stage in front of a large audience, playing in a full worship band in a cavernous hall, driving a percussion ensemble through an outdoor event, or contributing bold rhythmic texture to a high-energy Latin music performance, the CP390 delivers at every level without requiring amplification or any additional effort from the player. The 10-inch solid wood frame does more than provide a large resonating surface. Wood contributes warmth and organic body to the jingle tone, preventing the instrument from sounding harsh or fatiguing at sustained high volumes. On the CP390, this wood resonance is particularly important because it naturally balances the intense output of the double headless jingle rows, keeping the instrument sounding full, rich, and genuinely musical at every dynamic level rather than simply overwhelming. At 0.8 lbs, the CP390 is the heaviest tambourine in the CP family, a direct reflection of the additional hardware in a double row headless configuration, but it remains comfortable for extended playing sessions. The contoured grip and rounded edges that characterize the headless CP line keep the CP390 accessible and ergonomic for players of all ages, reducing fatigue during long rehearsals, live performances, and intensive practice. The rounded frame edges are particularly considerate for younger players and those with sensitive hands, ensuring the playing experience remains enjoyable regardless of duration. For musicians who have worked through smaller and single row instruments in the CP family and are ready for the ultimate step up, the CP390 is that instrument. It brings together every acoustic and ergonomic advantage the CP line has developed into one comprehensive, uncompromising package. Backed by Latin Percussion, a globally respected brand with decades of expertise in professional and entry-level percussion worldwide, the CP390 represents the pinnacle of the CP tambourine family and a genuine long-term investment for any musician committed to performing at the highest possible level.
