Hand-carved Djembe Drum From Africa – 13"x24" – Drum Circle Village

Description

The Drum Circle Djembe by Africa Heartwood Project is designed to offer a
budget drum for the beginner drummer whose priority is to get a playable
djembe for the lowest possible price. These are real djembes, handcarved in
Ghana, and are suitable for a drummer who is interested in recreational rhythm
making. These drums are typical of what you would find at an open-air market
in Ghana, are likely the type of drum-souvenir most tourists take home with
them after a holiday in Africa, and is an improvement on most drums exported
from Indonesia. They tend to look exotic but lack some of the quality details
that finer djembes built for technical drumming have. The size is standard for
an adult drummer, about 12-13″ head X about 24″ tall. This drum features a
deep red/brown stain, deep or line carved elephant/giraffe/boar in contrast
light/dark, with hair shaved, and black rope.. Exact size and style will vary
from photos above, but will be similar.

Features:

• After import from Africa, each instrument is cleaned, inspected, tuned, and played individually to check sound and quality.
• Excellent sound quality from solid handcarved wood shell and natural West African goat skin.
• Comes to you tuned up, ready to play out of the box.
• Hand crafted in Africa by village cultural artisans supported by the non-profit Africa Heartwood Project .
