Hand-crafted from a single piece of sun-dried Mango wood, this djembe delivers a rich, resonant voice characterized by deep, loud bass tones and high, sharp slap tones.

Installation
This djembe arrives ready for use. To achieve the desired pitch, utilize the 5mm non-stretch rope system. By weaving and tightening the rope according to traditional djembe tuning methods, you can increase the head tension for higher slap tones or loosen it for a deeper, boomier bass response.
