Description

Gope repique
“Bacurinha”
6” x 20cm
4 tuning lugs
Gope repiques are prized for their sharp, clear, projecting sound, especially for use in samba reggae and Bahian rhythms.  The bearing edges are even and sharp and the drums have nicely machined hardware that allows for accurate tuning.
6″ repiques, called “bacurinhas” have a very high pitch.  They are more commonly used on a stand on stage, played with small flexible sticks. These drums have been used by bands such as Timbalada and other modern bands in Bahia, playing axe and pagodão.
Many repiques and other drums from Brazil are available too.  Caixa, tamborim, pandeiro, caixa cases, etc.  Contact me with questions or visit virada drums.com
