Cowbells
Dave currently uses the LP Mamo
LP-229 bell and the smaller salsa ES-12 bell. They are
mounted with a Yamaha boom arm clamped off the ride
stand.
TECHNICAL: LP Cowbells are handmade in the USA using the
same exact specifications developed by LP Founder Martin
Cohen more than 30 years ago.
All LP cowbells are crafted
from premium quality steel and specially developed
tooling with careful attention given to the tolerance
levels.
 A large variety of LP bells offers different pitches and
sound characteristics designed to meet all musical needs
and fit into any genre.
All mounted cowbells feature the
famous forged eye-bolt clamp assembly with oversized
wing nuts that provide secure placement on 3/8" diameter
mounting rods with only finger tightening.
Timbales
Dave uses
LP LP257-B Tito Puente Timbales. They have a distinctive
modern ribbed brass shell. The top and bottom edges are
turned-in to create a livelier, more cutting
"cascara"-the sound produced when striking the side of
the drum shell.
LP timbale construction has been tested on world tours
from Japan to South America to ensure that it withstands
the rigors of the road.
The LP257-B timbale set is sold complete with a
chrome-plated, heavy-duty steel stand and a die-cast
geared tilter that locks tight for straight or tilted
playing. The height adjustment mechanism with
anti-rattle sleeve ensures absolute, non-slip, positive
positioning with only hand tightening.
LP includes an adjustable welded steel cowbell holder
that employs LP's superior eyebolt assembly with the
Tito Puente Brass Timbales.
