MEINLMountable Drummer Timbale 13 in.
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A single 13-inch mountable timbale in gray. For drum set players adding a metallic, cutting voice without building a full percussion rig.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Kit drummers wanting one sharp metal crack in their setup
- Latin-flavored parts played from behind a standard drum kit
- Adding a cascara or rim pattern without a separate percussion stand
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Traditional timbale players, who need a matched pair and stand
- Drummers with a crowded rack and no spare mounting point
- Anyone wanting warm, resonant tone — this is bright and cutting
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
13-inch shell
The larger of the two common timbale sizes. Lower pitch, fuller body, still sharp on the rim.
Detail 03
Sold singly
One drum, not a pair. You get one pitch — fine as a kit accent, limiting for real timbale parts.
Detail 04
Metal shell construction
Metal shells give the loud, ringing crack timbales are known for. Very different from a wood tom.
Detail 05
Under $150
Entry-level pricing for the format. Buys the sound and the mount, not pro-tier shell or hardware weight.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your rack or cymbal stand has a free post for the mount
- 02Timbale sticks are thinner than drumsticks and are not included
- 03Rim shots on a metal shell are loud — check before using it in quiet rooms
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this come with a stand?
No. It's designed to mount to hardware you already have, so budget for a clamp or free stand post if you don't have one.
02Is this one drum or two?
One 13-inch timbale. A traditional setup uses a matched pair of different sizes.
03Can I use it as a regular tom?
You can mount it like one, but the metal shell sounds bright and ringy, not warm like a wood tom.
04What size head does it take?
A 13-inch head. Timbale heads are thinner and higher-tuned than tom heads, so buy timbale-specific replacements.
