Play your top quality castanets and display your top skill!

This collection of Castanuelas del Sur castanets aims at the top professional category of Flamenco dancers.  They are all made of 80% compressed softwood slices impregnated with 20% retin, using traditional methods backed by the superb know-how of four generations of expert, castanet craftsmen.

Thanks to their composition and top quality of the materials they are crafted from, the castanets:

• Outstanding durability
• Outstanding resilience (they do not crack or break)
• Imperviousness to the wear and tear of the friction they produce
• Moisture-absorbency
• Superior timbre intensity and quality, uninfluenced by sudden changes in temperature

The basic difference of this model from the Fibra Beteada one is its double sound box (Doble Caja). That makes these castanets a lot lighter since the existence of the second sound box means that less material has been used in making the castanets.

Another difference is that the double sound box makes the sound the castanets emit hoarser and rougher, in other words much more Flamenco!

With every purchase of our castanets we’ll make you a GIFT of a special leather pouch to store them in: every time you take them out they will be as good as new.

Are you a Flamenco teacher and need a castanet model with a particularly high-pitched sound to fulfill certain of your educational needs?

At Flamencista, you’ll find the ideal solution to your needs!
