Meinl SH20BK Wakah Shaker, Medium, Black
Compact, playful and ready to add unique texture to your percussion setup — the Meinl SH20BK Wakah Shaker is a standout piece. What sets it apart is its dual‑chamber construction, separated by a thin plastic membrane, allowing you to create a genuine “wah‑wah” effect by covering and uncovering the sound‑hole with your fingers.
The body combines a wooden casing for warmth and resonance with a sleek black finish for visual appeal. It’s labelled “Medium” size, making it ideal for hand‑held play, lap rhythms, or additional colour in a percussion rig. Despite its compact size, it delivers expressive dynamics — gentle shakes give subtle ornamentation, while more forceful uses bring richer texture and presence.
At Musicmaker, we appreciate gear that brings creative spark with minimal fuss — this Wakah Shaker fits the bill. Whether you’re layering ambient grooves, adding motion to acoustic sets or exploring rhythmic ideas in the studio, it’s the kind of instrument you’ll reach for again and again.
