The LP Matador M257 timbales come in a 14" and 15" pairing with chrome shells and matching chrome hardware. The Matador series is LP's working-pro timbale line, offering durability and solid tone at a step below the Prestige tier. Chrome shells produce a bright, cutting sound with a punchy attack that carries in live settings.

These are gigging timbales built to take regular use without falling apart. The hardware is sturdy and the tuning range accommodates the high, crisp pitches traditional in salsa and Latin jazz. A reliable choice for the serious timbale player looking for quality without going to the top of the catalog.
