Meinl Percussion Tuned Djembe Hand Drum Circle Features
-
LEARN TO PLAY IN MINUTES: strike the center with your whole hand for deep, resonant bass and near the rim with your fingers for high-pitched slap tones; this djembe is a perfect instrument for getting the confidence to play percussion with no experience
-
WHY IT MATTERS: a lot of fun musical adventures don't require time-consuming practice on a drum set; with the Meinl Headliner Djembe, you can play in drum circles, acoustic shows with bands, jam with friends and family, or teach students about rhythm
-
ZOOM IN: the shell is hand made out of a single piece of solid mahogany from certified managed forests (NOT glued together wood pieces); the exterior is beautifully hand carved and looks great for decoration in your home or studio
-
DRIVING THE SOUND: you can get a lot of different sounds from its traditional goat skin rawhide head; this head produces a classic warm, yet clear tone while being remarkably durable
-
OF NOTE: the djembe comes tuned and ready to play right out of the box; the West African Mali Weave rope tuning system holds a long-lasting pitch, and we pre-stretch the ropes so it sounds great right away (comes with tuning instructions)
-
BY THE NUMBERS: mahogany shell measures 12" wide x 24" tall and weighs about 15.4 lbs; goat skin head measures 12" with a 10" playing area (head is slightly larger than the playing area because it wraps around and down the rim)
-
THE BOTTOM LINE: this is your chance to grab a hand made, all-purpose, sturdy djembe that easily produces a wide range of sound indoors or outside; it's not intimidating to play—even if you're a beginner—and looks beautiful on display
-
THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
