Installation
The Tycoon Percussion Master Series Djembe arrives ready for use. To achieve the desired pitch, use the included tuning wrench to tighten the 5/16″ diameter lugs evenly around the Chrome Deluxe hoop. It is recommended to tighten the lugs in a cross-pattern (star pattern) to ensure the goat skin head is tensioned uniformly across the shell.
