Verduin Percussion

I want to give a huge thank you and wish a very happy retirement to Mr. Kim.

When I first started pursuing making tambourine jingles while living in Korea, Mr. Kim played a major role in helping bring those ideas to life. He generously shared his knowledge, helped with production, and also introduced me to many other skilled craftsmen throughout the Cheonggyecheon area of Seoul.

Thanks again for everything, Mr. Kim!

Always fun to take our metal castanets out into the wild for some Bacchanale. Ending up using the small model for the softer dynamic sections and the large model for the ending to help make things more exciting.

4 new castanets are all "cast" and polished. They'll be heading out the door soon for Portugal.

New Year, new ideas! Playing around with some new tambourine shell ideas to help speed up head changes. Natural skin on the composite shells took almost 24+ hours to dry. Trying out some various wood inlays to help speed up the bond and dry time.

It's time to finally introduce your Fraser fir to the classic Philadelphia sound. Abel triangle Christmas ornaments are now available for $16 + shipping.

They are 3D printed with a lightweight filament and they also include a matching Philly style triangle holder; safety line included!

Disclaimer: intended for visual enjoyment only. Due to the 3D printing process, various seam lines on the triangle can be seen up close.

Please DM me if you're interested!
