Description

Meinl 14″ Travel Series African Djembe (Synthetic Head) is a lightweight, weatherproof drum built for drummers who need reliable sound on the go. Whether you’re playing outdoors, on stage, or in a drum circle, this djembe offers bold tone, durable construction, and worry-free performance in any climate.

Materials and Build Quality

This djembe features a synthetic shell designed to mimic the look of natural wood while keeping the weight low. It’s incredibly durable, making it ideal for travel, teaching, and outdoor playing. The shell is resistant to moisture and temperature changes, so it won’t crack or warp—no matter the weather.

The 14″ synthetic head is pre-tuned and built for consistent tone and long-term reliability. It produces sharp slaps, warm open tones, and deep bass with excellent projection. Unlike natural skin, it won’t stretch or lose tension over time, making it perfect for consistent, low-maintenance performance.

The rope tuning system includes pre-stretched nylon and 30 vertical runners, allowing for stable tension and tool-free adjustments. It adds to the drum’s traditional look while offering modern convenience.

Performance and Use Case

This djembe is a great choice for group drumming, music educators, festivals, and traveling musicians. The 14″ head size delivers full, rich sound with volume that carries well in open spaces. Its lightweight build and tough materials make it easy to transport and built to last.
