Kolberg Soloist pedal timpani deliver an outstanding sound quality with straightforward handling. The fibreglass timpano is designed with a particularly voluminous bowl so that the sound quality is comparable to copper-bowl models. Weight reduction eases transportation and the lower price is good for your budget! In order to facilitate transport, the three height-adjustable legs can be retracted into the bowl in a space-saving manner. Transport in a larger car is therefore no problem.

BOWL SIZES

Individual sets can be formed at customer's choice and can be expanded to a 5-timpani set by duplicating one size in accordance with the desired range and sound volume.

BOWL

The bowl is made of high quality fibreglass. The voluminouslyconceived fibreglass bowl offers excellent sound quality with low, transport friendly weight (average weight of a timpano: 21 kg). The sound quality is optimised by a precisely fitted aluminium profile strip with a very small bowl rim radius.

COUNTERHOOP

The angle profile counterhoop is scratch- and shockproof black-silver powder-coated, no annoying light-reflections. The tensioning screw heads do not project beyond the counterhoop, which makes the soloist pedal timpano particularly grip-friendly, as well as convenient to play and to transport.

FRAME

The three height-adjustable chrome-plated legs can be released by means of a user-friendly knurled screw, and retracted into the bowl or removed completely for ease of transportation. Precise height indicator rings on the legs facilitate the height adjustment. One leg is equipped with a caster for easy manoeuvring of the timpano. Fittings and bowl supporting nest are scratch- and shockproof black-silver powder-coated. Playing height: approx. 80 - 93 cm

PEDAL

The pedal is infinitely adjustable and lockable. By pressing the pedal plate slightly, the pedal lock can be changed silently and safely in both directions.

TUNING GAUGE

The flat tuning gauge is very well protected during transport due to its being flush with the counterhoop and its shallow design. The tuning gauge indices are inclined towards the player and can be easily shifted and locked in position without requiring tools. The tuning gauge with tuning indicator is mounted on player's side and universally suited to all set-ups. The supplied tuning key is securely and vibration-free attached to the tuning gauge holder.
