About this item

  • NO "CHEESE GRATER" EFFECT: that's a term used for non-professional sounding guiras that don't have musical tone; this merengue guira gives you that authentic sound with balanced frequencies and full volume
  • WHY IT MATTERS: you'll be able to mesh right away with other players so you can set the pace and get into the music; avoid shrill or dull tones that distract you and your listeners
  • ONE BIG THING: inside the body is shaker filling so you can incorporate shaker effects into your playing; the body is completely sealed, and you can shake it however you want
  • DRIVING THE SOUND: made from 100% high-quality brushed steel; the raised bumps are sized to easily get a full scratching effect while gliding across them with the scraper
  • INCLUDES SCRAPER: durable steel rods are firmly secured in the grip, and they're spaced out to deliver a rich sound with depth and volume; the rods are made to last so you won't have to replace later
  • BY THE NUMBERS: measures 11 1/2" long x 3" wide and includes scraper; larger sizes have lower pitch, small sizes have higher pitch
  • THE BOTTOM LINE: its authentic sound fits traditional Dominican dance music styles like Bachata and Merengue, or you can play it with modern pop music; it's easy to get a full sound, and it's built to last
  • THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality


The Meinl guiro shaker Comes with a filling inside to produce a cutting shaker effect. Use the guiro as a shaker or scrape on the side of the metal body for classic guiro sounds.

No soy experto en guiras pero respecto al sonido me gusta es brillante pero no aturde no distorsiona, tiene buenos acabados y es ligera en comparación a otras que he visto

Clinky and ringy noise, almost like a tuning fork. May help to fill the hollow center with some light fabric or cotton like substance.
