About the product:

Special low frequency djembe with engravings and decoration

🌍 Origin: Mali

📐 Dimensions: Height of 55 and 65 cm

🧬 Material: Mahogany wood and goatskin

🎶 Sound type: Mid to bass

📦 Packaging: Individually

🎁 Ideal for giving as a gift or treating yourself!

👉 The body of this djembe is hand-turned from mahogany wood and covered with goatskin using a multi-layered alpine nylon-polyester cord.

On the belly of the drum there is a braided carrying handle and a reserve of tension cord.

There is a bass reflex ring inside to enhance the sound spectrum in favor of low tones. Thanks to the recesses on the base, the djembe can also be played without tilting. Ideal as a bass element when playing with several djembes at the same time.

The wood is varnished to enhance its appearance and prevent moisture, stress, and dirt. Artistic and sculptural African-style carvings are hand-embedded into the base for decoration. This makes each djembe unique.
