The pandero jarocho is an octagonal tambourine or pandero traditionally played by men in the Veracruz region of Mexico.[1][2] The instrument may also be played by both men and women in school music groups.[1]

It has a wooden frame with leather stretched across and metal jingles.[1][2] Instruments may be as large as 13 inches in diameter, and may be "circular or some geometric shape."[1]

The instrument is sounded through "direct striking" with the thumb or fingers or through "friction...sliding and pressing the skin."[1]
