The LP LP258-B Tito Puente Thunder Timbales bring the King of Timbales' sound to a 15" and 16" brass shell configuration. These are the larger-format Puente timbales, favored for their deep, powerful tone and commanding stage presence. Brass shells add warmth and character compared to chrome, with plenty of volume and sustain.

Tito Puente's legacy in Latin music is unmatched, and LP's collaboration with him produced instruments that reflect the highest standards of timbale construction. Whether you're playing mambo, cha-cha, or contemporary Latin jazz, these timbales have the authority to lead any band. Built for professionals who play hard every night.
