Professional Djembe 12X24 DK106

Another djembe with good all around sound, not maxed to full tension, leaving options open for the djembefola who likes a lower more mellow sound. The shell is well proportioned, with a medium-thick goat skin, semi-wet sound now with potential for higher and drier feel as diamonds are added. A discount is being offered because of restoration work to a vertical check that went up half the base. Along with a money back guarantee, here is what this professional djembe features:

• 12.25" OSD (outside diameter) wood, 24" full height, 9" OSD base, 15 lbs
• Even dark brown Iroko wood, solid one piece construction, uniform thickness, imported direct
• Wood seasoned and handcarved in Ivory Coast, West Africa, hydrated with lots of coconut oil
• Medium-thick goat skin from West Africa, wet shaved and hydrated with a bit of shea butter
• 5mm silver low-stretch drum rope for the 32 pairs of vertical ropes, first row of tuning started
• 4mm blue mix drum rope for top loops and bottom loops, single hitch loop pattern on bottom ring
• Cotton cloth used to wrap bottom and top rings, including flesh hoop to prevent rust damage to skin
• Rope handle installed underneath the verticals gives you a place to attach your strap
