The LP Afuche Cabasa Standard LP234A is the modern version of a classic Afro-Brazilian instrument, rethought by LP with a steel bead chain that produces a smooth, consistent rasp when you rotate the cylinder against your palm. The sound is immediately recognizable in Latin, pop, soul, and funk recordings -- a continuous, rhythmic shushing that adds texture and energy to almost any groove.

The standard size LP234A is the most versatile in the Afuche family, large enough to project clearly in live settings while remaining easy to handle for extended playing. The grip is comfortable and the mechanism operates smoothly, giving you precise control over the rhythm and intensity of the sound. An essential studio and stage tool that's appeared on a staggering number of hit recordings.
