5"Just Right"  Oct 24, 2008 By New England Yankee
I think this is the best cabasa available. Having looked at several brands, LP's quality is the best. The wood is cut and finished just so, the chain is exactly the right tension, and the metal surface has just the right texture. The result is a responsive tool that will last and gives a good sound reliably. I like the standard size the best for balance and both weight and sound.

If you've looked at some of the plastic versions on the market, stay away! They just don't have the right sound. That's not an aversion to plastic generally, either, as I have a plastic guiro that I like a lot.

Very pleasant and playable.

3The "original," but not necessarily the best...  May 11, 2010 By Walter C. "Walter C."
I bought it based on the brand recognition, then tried out the Rhythm Tech version - with the rubber-covered handle; I found the workmanship on the RT to equal or surpass the LP, liked the darker wood of the RT, and loved the covered handle...better grip, better feel, more comfortable. I returned the LP and ordered the Rhythm Tech for even less money.


5good for a salsa dance party in your living room  Apr 04, 2012 By Pamela Mallek Turner "Pamela"
This product is sturdy and loud. I learned certain "beats" from youtube.com when I typed in Cabasa. I have prefected my salsa hip moves and this instrument just makes my routine perfect.


4Very well made  Jan 18, 2012 By Daniel Alicea "The Jester"
I bought this for a friend and it looks a lot better than I expected. Very well made. The material feels sturdy and it sounds great! It has provided hours of entertainment.


5Latin Percussion LP234A Afuche/Cabasa Standard  Jan 06, 2012 By R. H. Lewis
This was a great surprise for me as expected it to be bigger. But as it worked out it was for my wife to use while performing and it was the perfect size for her needs.
