Black Swamp Pro Concert Castanets speak with a solid, impressive tone from forte to piano, and rip simple or complex rhythms with ease. You’ve never sounded so Flamenco. We make them with certified Honduras Rosewood and Grenadillo in our own facility for complete quality control. Each chip is CNC machined, then voiced by hand (and by a musician’s ear) so you get the most musical and consistent castanets available.

CNC Machined for Precision, Voiced and Finished by Hand
While CNC machine (computer numerical control) carves the precision, the castanets can only sound great after it’s hand voiced and finished by a musician’s ear. This is why you will only find a superior level of clarity, response, and fullness in a Black Swamp castanet.

Castanet Handle
A Handle Design Unrivaled in Response and Playability
The innovative handle is the key to the unmatched performance of Black Swamp castanets. Play them on your knee or in the air (don’t even try that with any other castanet). Play them at all dynamic ranges, and rip some redoble rolls like you were a flamenco artist. Our new design took years to perfect and can do it all without elastic or adjustment knobs.
