The Meinl Heel Shaker is a foot percussion instrument designed to free your hands during performance. Slip the shoehorn–style arm behind your heel, tap your foot, and trigger two shakers that deliver a full, cutting sound without any hands involved. This opens up fingering space on guitar, keys, drums, or any instrument where you need both hands engaged.
The shaker pairs are positioned to generate pronounced attack and projection across the frequency range, cutting through band mixes in live settings. The heel–mounted design sits stable against your shoe throughout the performance, requiring no additional foot hardware or pedal setup. Rigged correctly, it responds to natural foot movement with minimal fatigue during long sets or studio tracking sessions.
