The Meinl Percussion Tambourine Holder Set is very easy to set up. Just place the tambourine in between the four foam holders, turn the tambourine to yourself, facing the jingle-side, then use your foot or hand to easily tap on the tambourine. The set is protected against slipping away by four rubber feet on the bottom. A tambourine other than the one supplied can also be used by removing some of the four foam holders to make room for a larger handle.
