Installation
This djembe arrives ready for use. To achieve your desired pitch, use the included tuning wrench to tighten the 5/16″ lugs evenly around the Deluxe hoop. It is recommended to tighten the lugs in a cross-pattern (star pattern) to ensure the goat skin is tensioned uniformly across the shell.
