Materials and Build Quality

This professional djembe features a hand-carved mahogany shell, offering rich resonance and natural tone. The shell is hollowed from one solid piece of plantation-grown wood and finished with ornamental carvings and a dark mahogany stain. The drumhead is made from carefully selected goatskin, giving it responsive feel and dynamic tonal range.

The strong rope tuning system uses high-quality PP nylon rope with a pre-stretched design. It’s built for long-term tuning stability and allows for fine-tuning without the need for tools. The drum comes pre-tuned and ready to play straight out of the box.
