The Double Tenors Steel Pan is a favorite for players who want extended melodic range with a slightly deeper tone than the lead (tenor) pan. Tuned and hand-shaped by world-respected steel pan builder James Andrews, this instrument is a must-have for serious performers, school bands, and cultural groups.
Designed for versatility, the Double Tenors allow you to switch effortlessly between melody, harmony, and counterpoint roles. Each pan is expertly tuned by ear for tonal clarity, sustain, and pitch precision—ideal for concert performance, studio recording, and ensemble work.
Whether you’re performing calypso, classical, jazz, or gospel, this steel pan delivers a balanced, rich sound across the full scale.
