The LP Afuche/Cabasa creates rhythmic patterns and sounds. Loops of steel bead chain wrapped around a specially textured stainless steel cylinder create the distinctive sound when the chain vibrates against the wooden flanges and cylinder of the cabasa.

The LP cabasa is an essential instrument for creating percussion effects that should be in every percussionist’s arsenal. Solid wood and steel construction
