The oval is the structural statement of our headless tambourine family: an ABS shell the factory describes as solid, light and sturdy, with an innovative design that keeps seven stainless steel bells singing while the frame stays flat enough to nest. No drumhead, nothing to tear or tune — the jingle voice of the percussion section in its most durable form. Four colors, four order codes: 020031 red, 020035 blue, 020038 silver and 020039 black.

Why the Oval Sells
Three things decide this model for classroom buyers, and all three are visible in the product photograph:
- Nothing to tear. No skin, no composite film, no tension ring — the failure mode that ends most tambourines does not exist in a headless frame. For shared classroom sets, that turns an annual consumable into a multi-year asset.
- Seven bells, evenly voiced. Each bell position carries a pair of stainless metal discs, so the shimmer is balanced across the oval rather than clustered at one end. Seven positions is the classroom sweet spot: present in a group shake, never masking the singing.
- Four colors, one spec. Red, blue, silver and black share the same shell, the same bell set and the same box — color-coding a class set is a stock decision, not a custom one.
The trade-off is honest: there is no drum voice. Where a programme needs tone as well as shimmer, pair the set with a hand drum from the same factory — the high-grade beech hand drum in four sizes or the standard kids’ hand drum.
Four Shapes, One Idea: Choosing Within the Family
| 020031 group · oval | 270 × 185 × 40 mm · 7 bells · solid, light and sturdy construction, four colors — this page |
| 020013 · arch | 255 × 190 × 45 mm · 16 bells · the NEW! flagship — most bells, easy grip, black as shown — see the arch page |
| 020041 group · semi-circular | 135 × 110 × 28 mm · 4 bells · the smallest — one-hand size for the youngest players, six colors — see the semi-circular page |
| 020051 group · bat | 280 × 130 × 46 mm · 12 bells · beech wooden handle, shake-and-strike, six colors — see the bat page |
All four shapes run on the same ABS-and-stainless platform, so a mixed order arrives as one product family with one parts list.

Product Positioning
The oval is the four-color member of a four-shape headless family — arch (020013), semi-circular (020041–020047) and bat with wooden handle (020051 / 020052 / 020054 / 020055 / 020056 / 020058) — each on its own page with its own size and bell count. Where a programme needs tone as well as shimmer, the headed tambourine lines are the complement: the high-grade beech and birch-and-leather families run on separate production lines, so headed and headless models can be ordered together as one shipment.
It shares the production line with our own consumer brand Musicube — the same instrument family already selling on the US retail market under the Musicube name.
Quality & Manufacturing
The shell is moulded in durable ABS and the seven-bell stainless set is mounted and checked as a complete frame before packing — each bell seated, each retaining pin closed, the grip zone inspected for flash. Because there is no head, there is no tensioning step and nothing to drift in transit. Where applicable, product testing and compliance documentation are reviewed according to the target market and agreed product requirements — tell us your destination market and we will confirm what applies to your order.

OEM / ODM: Make It Yours
Once the instrument is proven, the next question is how it starts carrying your brand:
- Logo: print on the shell or the bell mounting plate, from low trial quantities.
- Colors: red, blue, silver and black are the standard four — volume orders can match your Pantone on the ABS shell.
- Bell count: seven as standard; the arch (16) and bat (12) shapes cover denser programmes on the same platform.
- Packaging: the full-color box takes your artwork natively — no sleeve needed.
- Set building: mixed colors in one carton for classroom kits, barcoded per SKU.
- Documentation: where applicable, product testing and compliance documentation are reviewed according to the target market and agreed product requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why choose a headless tambourine over a standard one?
A: There is no head to tear, tune or replace, and the ABS frame wipes clean and nests for storage. It is the maintenance-free jingle voice for classrooms and rental fleets. The trade-off is that it carries no drum tone — where a programme needs both, pair it with a hand drum from the same factory.
Q: How many bells does it actually have?
A: Seven bell positions, each mounted with a pair of stainless metal discs — the factory spec counts positions as bells, and our photography shows the pair-mounting clearly so there is no ambiguity at goods-in.
Q: Can we mix colors in one carton?
A: Yes — mixed-color cartons are a standard option for class-set buyers, barcoded per SKU at packing. Confirm the mix ratio on your quotation.
Q: What is the MOQ for OEM orders?
A: MOQ and carton configuration depend on your customization level and destination market — they are confirmed on your quotation rather than a fixed published number. Send your quantity and target market for a costed proposal within 24 hours.
