LPLP162 Cyclops Mountable Tambourine
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A mountable tambourine that clamps to a stand or hardware instead of being held. For drummers who need a jingle on every backbeat without a free hand.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Drummers wanting tambourine on the hi-hat or a stand
- Live setups where you can't put a handheld down
- Loop and groove work needing consistent jingle placement
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want expressive shake and roll technique
- Anyone without a stand or clamp to attach it to
- Hand percussionists — a handheld model gives more control
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
Cyclops frame
LP's single-hole mounting frame, built to bolt onto a stand or clamp rather than be gripped.
Detail 03
Black finish
Cosmetic. Blends into black hardware on a dark stage.
Detail 04
Around $50
Above throwaway mountable tambourines, which loosen and buzz. This tier holds its jingles under stick hits.
Detail 05
Stick-struck, not shaken
You get sharp attack and a shorter jingle decay than a shaken handheld tambourine. Rhythmic, not atmospheric.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No clamp or stand included — you supply the mounting hardware
- 02Check clearance where you mount it so sticks don't catch
- 03Mounted tambourines are a fixed sound; you can't vary it much mid-song
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What do I need to mount this?
A percussion clamp or an open stand post. Neither is included, so confirm your existing hardware has a spot before ordering.
02Can I mount it on a hi-hat?
That's a common placement — it sits on the hat and jingles with every foot close. You'll still need appropriate hardware to secure it.
03Can I play it by hand?
It's built to be struck with a stick or driven by hardware. It has a mounting frame, not a grip, so handheld playing is awkward.
04Is it loud enough for a live band?
Yes — struck with a stick it projects sharply. The bigger issue live is usually placement and mic bleed, not volume.
