Gon Bops’ Bucket Shekere

Christian Wissmuller • Drums & Percussion • August 31, 2019

Based on the Xequebalde, a Brazilian folk instrument, the new Gon Bops Bucket Shekere (PSHEKBK) is the first of its kind to be manufactured outside of Brazil. Quite literally a hybrid of a metal bucket and a shekere, the Bucket Shekere can be played in hand like a traditional shekere, or placed on a stand – a snare stand works perfectly – and played with brushes. The Bucket Shekere is also the first Will Phillips signature instrument for Gon Bops. Will’s design reflects his own fresh interpretation of this uniquely Brazilian instrument.

The Gon Bops Bucket Shekere is designed primarily to be super light for long-playing comfort , and provides a rich, warm percussive attack. It’s crafted from lightweight aluminum, and its shell stands 8″ in height with a 12.5″ opening.
