The thumb roll
 Spanish antique tambourine By stroking a thumb (or sometimes a finger) across the head of a tambourine, a sustained roll may be produced. The thumb is often wet slightly by licking it to increase the friction immediately before performing a thumb roll. Although a shaken roll is often used for longer rolls, the thumb roll is particularly effective for shorter rolls. It can be sustained by moving the thumb in patterns such as figures-of-eight across the head. However, since the tension across the head varies, this requires the player to vary the pressure applied to the head as he moves his thumb.
