Medium size and setting new standards, this is a top quality multi-purpose drum, easily carried and perfect for small groups and drumming circles. The drum has been turned from a single piece of mahogany and has professional quality, pre-stretched nylon stringing and a thick, natural goatskin head for a long life and a mellow tone. The slap is hard and the bass very impressive for its size.
The drum is 20 inches high and has a diameter of 9 to 10.5 inches; suitable for 6 years old upwards and big enough for two-handed drumming by children or grown-ups. This size of djembe works particularly well as the main instrument for primary classes and is also a useful second line for secondary groups. The finishing in this case is simply beautiful - just wax and polish, showing the natural grain of the mahogany to best advantage.
Drums are also available to order with mica instead of goatskin. Rucksack-style carry bag available - see Drum Accessories section. |
