Each djembe is meticulously hand-carved to perfect proportions by master djembe makers:
The bearing edges are rounded, perfectly balanced and smooth

The rope is premium grade - European 2-part polyester cord is used for the rope
The metal rings [for the tuning system] are custom welded to fit each drum perfectly!
The grain and color of the wood are beautiful - some of our customers even use it as sculpture in their house! And yet the sound is even better!
The bass is awesome - deep, warm and long sustaining; the slaps are perfectly crisp and the opens sing, sing, sing!
These djembes are so well made that it makes playing easier and that means more fun!
