It’s part of Meinl’s popular Headliner Series—perfect for players of all levels who want great sound and traditional craftsmanship at an accessible price.

Materials and Build Quality

This djembe is made from solid mahogany, hand-carved from a single piece of wood for strong resonance and authentic tone. It’s finished with decorative carvings and a dark stain that showcases the natural grain. The head is made from high-quality, hand-selected goatskin, offering excellent response and durability.

The rope tuning system uses strong, pre-stretched nylon rope with 30 vertical runners. It allows for even, reliable tension without the need for tools. This setup also gives the drum a classic look and feel. The 13″ playing surface provides plenty of volume and range, while still being comfortable to play for extended sessions.

It offers a wide dynamic range and is suitable for traditional African rhythms, modern improvisation, or meditative sound work. The size and build make it a great choice for adult players looking for a full, resonant tone with reliable tuning.
