Grover ProSuper-Overtone Triangle 6 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 6-inch orchestral triangle voiced for a bright, long overtone spread. For concert percussionists who need a single triangle hit to carry over an ensemble.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Concert band and orchestra parts that must cut through full tutti
- Marching pit work where a thin triangle vanishes outdoors
- Replacing a dull school triangle with a serious instrument
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners who need occasional triangle hits at the lowest cost
- Dry, quick-decay passages where a long ring muddies the line
- Kit players adding a casual accent they won't damp
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Super-Overtone voicing
Built to ring as a dense overtone cloud rather than one clear pitch, which is why it floats above an ensemble.
Detail 03
Long sustain
You damp it by hand for short notes. The ring outlasts most staccato figures if you let it go.
Detail 04
$90 for a triangle
Pro-tier spend on a single bar. The money buys decay length and even response, not features.
Detail 05
Bar only
A beater and a clip or holder are what make it playable. Neither is part of the bar itself.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Budget for a beater set and a clip or holder alongside it
- 02Graduated beater thicknesses matter more here than on a cheap triangle
- 03Handle it by the loop; skin oils dull the finish over time
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What size triangle do I need for concert band?
6 inch is the standard all-purpose size — bright enough to project, small enough for fast rhythms. Many players eventually carry a smaller and a larger one for contrast.
02What beater should I use with it?
Match beater diameter to the part: thin rods for fast quiet playing, thicker ones for loud sustained hits. A graduated set covers most band and orchestra writing.
03Why does this cost more than a $20 triangle?
Alloy and finishing set how long and how evenly the bar rings. Inexpensive triangles decay faster, sound clangier, and push one obvious pitch instead of a spread.
04Can I mount it on a drum kit?
Yes, on a clip or arm. It rings long, so plan on muting between hits or it will wash into the next bar.
